More People Die From Dirty Drinking Water Than All Forms Of Violence...

   Well friends, today is the day! Our GorillaStock.com website is launching this evening! AND we're launching our Indie GoGo Campaign, which will help us make it the the next level with a custom-built website, dedicated servers, and aggressive marketing campaign budget. So, much work has gone into this company...and we're just getting started! That's the best part! This is a very exciting day indeed! But...we also have another very exciting announcement!
   We are so pleased to announce that our 5th and final non-profit organization that will be a part of our launch and it is...Charity Water!
   Charity Water is an absolutely amazing non-profit organization that we are pumped out of our mind to be able to partner with in our endeavor to #ChangeTheWorld! Charity Water brings clean and safe drinking water to people in developing nations worldwide.
    You may wake up in the morning and think...I'm thirsty, but most of us have never really had the experience of being thirsty. We many feel inconvenienced by having to walk to the kitchen or the water fountain for a drink of crisp, clean, safe water. Can you imagine having to walk 5 miles to get water for you and your family every day? What if that water that you walked to gather wasn't guaranteed to be safe? It could even make you and your family sick.                                      
   It's hard for us to fathom that 800 million people in our world do not have clean drinking water. I can't even wrap my head around that...in this day of our technology-filled society, we can't even be sure that people aren't dying from water-related diseases? Or maybe we can.
   Charity Water is working to make sure that clean, safe drinking water is a reality for all people in all nations. This organization uses the 100% Model...meaning Charity Water made a bold promise. 100% of public donations go directly to fund clean water projects in the field. That means when you or I donate to Charity Water 100% of our contribution goes to fund a clean water project. That's one amazing promise.
   So, join us at Gorilla Stock in welcoming Charity Water, and let's get rolling. This adventures is just beginning. Let's get Gorilla Stock off to a strong start so we can make the global impact that we are being called to.

Grateful,

I cannot believe that we are getting to work with...

Wow! The last couple of weeks have been a whirlwind....in a world-changing way! I am so excited for all that this week holds. We are in the final planning of our Indie Go Go campaign, which will help take us to the next level to make Gorilla Stock the success that we know it can be. Final tweeks are being made to our website, which is launching THIS FRIDAY, 10.19.12!!! And other behind the scenes things that we will get to share with you very soon! But, today I get the privilege of announcing our fourth partnering non-profit organization. We are so pleased to announce we get to partner with our content contributors and buyers to help fund Feed My Starving Children!


Feed My Starving Children is a far-reaching, world-impacting non-profit organization. We are so honored and thrilled to be able to use our dollars to help them change the world. FMSC is committed to feeding children hungry in body and spirit. The premise behind their organization is simple...children and adults hand-pack meals specifically formulated to feed malnourished children, and they ship the meals to nearly 70 countries around the world!

FMSC provides life-saving meals to people who need them most all over the world...from countries affected by natural disaster to those that are enduring economic hardships. These meals are distributed through missionary partnerships at orphanages, schools, clinics, refugee camps, and malnourishment centers. And, Feed My Starving Children believes in sustainability. So, it's not just one shipment of meals and they're done. They continue to provide their mission partners with the food that is needed to maintain their feeding programs.

How amazing is this?! But, we need your help! We must get the word out...about Gorilla Stock and our mission. That's where you come in! We will soon be launching a new Gorilla Stock Street Team initiative with some very fun perks, but until then can you help out?!

Essential Nutrients, Healthy Children...


    I cannot believe the ways that Gorilla Stock is already experiencing such wonderful things through this journey that is barely beginning. This is turning out to be an exposing, yet beautiful endeavor. All the great things are never easy, right?
   We have some very important meetings coming up this week...so all of you who pray, we will take it! Everything is happening so quickly and seems so big, but I know that we are on the right track. Gorilla Stock is going to make such a positive impact on the world and help so many people. I cannot wait! I'm bursting with excitement for the future!!!
   Part of changing our world is partnering with amazing, globally impacting non-profit organizations that will help us further our reach. We have been so happy to announce NEGU (Jessie Rees Foundation) which brings hope and awareness to children world-wide battling cancer; as well as BeLoved a non-profit organization whose vision is to reach the BeLoved who are sex addicted, sex workers or sex trafficked. And, we are so excited to  be able to announce our third non-profit organization that we get the honor of partnering with to have an impact and change the world! Gorilla Stock is so happy to announce Vitamin Angels as our newest partner!
image001.png     Vitamin Angels  is a unique and amazing organization that helps provide essential nutrients that help children attain good health and the opportunity to thrive. The mission of Vitamin Angels is to mobilize and deploy private sector resources to advance availability, access, and use of micronutrients, especially vitamin A, among at-risk populations in need.
   Vitamin Angels reduces child mortality worldwide by connecting essential nutrients with infants and children under five. Essential nutrients enable young immune systems to fight infectious diseases, helping young children attain good health and the opportunity to lead meaningful and productive lives. In 2012, Vitamin Angels will reach approximately 25,000,000 children in over 40 countries, including the United States, with the vital nutrients they need as a foundation for good health.
   This organization places in our hands the vehicle to improve the health and life of 25,000,000 children this year alone! Such a gift! Won't you join us? We will soon be accepting content contributors and street team members. If you want to help NOW and help get Gorilla Stock launched, share our blog, re-tweet us on Twitter, and share us on Facebook. Help us get the word out!
