Dare to...
Help Yforum.com in its new mission.


 

Yforum, founded in 1998, is at an exciting crossroad.

Our mission has always been to bring your brave discussions that cross racial, gender, orientation and religious lines to the masses -- to help us all realize that despite our similarities, we all see things just a little bit differently from one another. The sooner we embrace that, the sooner we can get past it, and accomplish great things together.

Now we have bold plans to expand your dialogue in new ground-breaking ways (you've always broken the rules as Yforum.com pioneers, so why stop now?).

Just for a moment, picture this: In the same way social networking sites such as MySpace and Facebook bring people together of similar interests and backgrounds, we are at work on our vision to grow Yforum.com into a radically new kind of networking site: one that brings people together of different backgrounds. Imagine the first true networking site in which the very reason you are there is to meet, talk to and learn from people who look at things in ways you may have never thought of or dreamed.

At last, the open spirit and promise of the Internet can begin to be met. And you can play a vital role.

To help us fully achieve this enormous undertaking, we need your help. We have not sought contributions since the first year of our project, but now we are asking that you find it in your heart to donate a small amount to Yforum.com. Whether it be $10, $25, $100 or another amount you feel comfortable with, please make a one-time donation to our cause, so that we can continue this labor of love in new and pioneering ways.

And, on a personal note, I want to say thank you, to all of our Yforum.com contributors and users. You have proved, in a way that has affected me deeply and changed the course of my life, that given the chance, people will gladly engage in productive dialogue, even when it is about the most provocative and even divisive topics.

Best to you all,

Phillip J. Milano
Founder and Director
