Do You Know Your Nonprofit's Target?
When I work with nonprofit leaders to create a strategic plan, one of the first things we do together is create a Theory of Change. A Theory of Change is an articulation of why your nonprofit exists — what you ultimately hope to accomplish. The Theory of Change is the culmination of answers to a set of 5 key questions, the first of which is, "Who is Your Target Population?"
Your Target Population is the individuals or groups that your nonprofit is seeking to benefit or influence. So if you are a social services nonprofit, your target population is probably your clients. If you are an advocacy group, your target population is probably lawmakers. But often a nonprofit has multiple target populations. For example, a school that works directly with both children and their parents would have both groups as separate target populations.
When a nonprofit exists just to do good work, its leaders are less clear and less disciplined about exactly who they are seeking to benefit or influence. But it is absolutely essential that your nonprofit get crystal clear about who your target population is, in order to better create change for those targets, more effectively encourage funders to invest in what you are doing, put your limited resources to their highest and best use, and, most importantly, to really understand how best to create change with your target.
But figuring out your target population is not easy.
First, let's start with who is not your target population:
Not Your Funders
Your target population is not individuals or groups who fund your work. While funders are absolutely critical to your success, they are not core to your mission-related work. So while you would love to influence them to give you more money, their doing that will not by itself create social change. They are not your target population, rather they are a means to an end.
Not The Targets of Your Competitors or Collaborators
Your target population is also not individuals or groups that are being better benefitted or influenced by other organizations or entities. This is where your Marketplace Map comes in (another key part of a strategic planning process). As a nonprofit you will be most successful when your 1) core competencies (what you do better than anyone else) uniquely position you to address 2) a community need, apart from your 3) competitors or collaborators. So once you figure out who your competitors and collaborators are, you should avoid target populations that are being more effectively served by those other entities.
Not Those Who You Cannot Change
Your target population is also not individuals or groups who you really want to help, but are simply not well-positioned to do so. This is the case with nonprofit leaders who are so big-hearted that they continue to add new groups to serve until they realize that their services and the people they serve range much too far and wide. This approach often spreads a nonprofit too thin and ends up providing diminishing returns for the organization and their clients. While it often goes against a nonprofit leader's ethos, sometimes you have to turn some people away in order to better serve those who you can serve really well.
So who is your target population?
Your target population then are those people who you are uniquely positioned to benefit or influence and in doing so you will move closer to achieving your nonprofit's long-term vision for change. When you get clearer about who you are best positioned to benefit or influence, you will be better able to direct your precious resources (staff, board, funders, volunteers) toward achieving that ultimate goal.
In other words, when you are clearer about who you want to change, you will become better at actually creating that change.

Building Better Nonprofits: A Podcast
Last month I was asked by Ted Bilich, CEO of Risk Alternatives — a Washington, DC firm helping nonprofits manage their organizational and financial risks — to participate in a podcast. This is part of their ongoing podcast series "About Risk" which talks to thought leaders about risk management and process improvement for nonprofits, small businesses, and startups.
In the podcast Ted and I talk about:
- How the nonprofit landscape has become more competitive
- Why nonprofits need a theory of change
- How and when to engage in strategic planning
- How nonprofits can determine if they are applying best practices
- The benefits of a financial model assessment
- How to address common risks involving a board of directors
- And much more

5 Benefits of a Nonprofit Theory of Change [Slideshare]
I was speaking to a group of nonprofit leaders last month about creating a nonprofit value proposition — how to articulate the value their nonprofit creates — and it was exciting to see the lightbulb go on around the room.
Nonprofit leaders are so passionate about the work they do — it is so obvious to them why their work is critically important.
But that's the problem.
Because it is so obvious to them, it is often incredibly difficult for a nonprofit leader to articulate to someone outside the organization (funders, volunteers, advocates, even board members sometimes) why they should become involved.
This is where a value proposition — or what I call a Theory of Change — comes in.
If you can articulate your target audience, what you do, and what you hope to achieve, you have a much greater chance of encouraging others to join your efforts.
A Theory of Change is such a fundamental building block to everything a nonprofit does. So I have created a new Slideshare presentation from the speech I gave on the 5 Benefits of a Theory of Change. In my mind, a Theory of Change:
- Builds a Vision, Mission and Strategy
- Engages Board and Staff
- Helps Prove Impact
- Allows Capacity Capital, and
- Attracts More Support
So, adding to the growing library of Social Velocity Slideshare presentations, below is the 5 Benefits of a Nonprofit Theory of Change slideshare, which describes these benefits in detail and shows you how to create a Theory of Change for your nonprofit.
Take a look below.

3 Signs of a Bad Nonprofit Strategic Plan
I've been leading several strategic planning processes lately, and as we wrapped up the last planning meeting for one of my clients (who had been encouraged to create a strategic plan by a funder) my client announced:
"I have to confess that when we started this process 6 months ago I inwardly rolled my eyes because I thought it would be a pointless process, full of silly buzzwords and with little value. I have completely changed my mind. I can already see how this new plan is making us smarter, more effective and more sustainable."
Yep, I completely get it.
Strategic planning, when poorly done, is just a joke. But, when strategic planning is done well, it can completely transform an organization.
And there are three key places where a bad strategic plan falls short:
- Your Strategy Isn't Big Enough
To create an effective strategic plan you have to start with the big picture. You must analyze and articulate who your target audience(s) are and your theory of change. Then you must look externally to understand the needs, the competitive landscape, the funding, the changing factors in the marketplace in which you operate. Nonprofit leaders sometimes mistakenly think they are creating an effective strategic plan when they sit in a room, look around at their fellow board and staff members, and ask each other what they think they should do. It is also a mistake to think that in such a rapidly changing world you can simply develop a status quo strategy. In order to stay relevant and sustainable you have to understand how you interact with the forces outside your walls and outside your control. And here's a little secret: the more you think about the bigger world out there, the more excited your board and funders will be by the plan. Your nonprofit doesn't exist in a vacuum, neither should your plan for the future.
- Your Strategy Isn't Small Enough
But the other danger is to get too big and neglect the small part — the execution and monitoring of the plan. It's great to have a bold vision and ambitious goals for the future that flow from an exciting theory of change. But that's not enough. How will you implement it? How will you break down tasks, and responsibilities? What's the timeline? And what is your process for determining, on a regular basis, whether the plan is actually coming to fruition? A good strategic plan, one that will actually transform your organization, requires operational detail and a process for monitoring it over time.
- Your Strategy Ignores Money
There is no effective strategic plan that neglects to answer how you will finance it. That's why a good strategic plan devotes one of its goals to money. How much will it cost to deliver on all of the goals of your plan? How will revenue (and capital if you need it) flow to meet (or exceed) those expenses? A good strategic plan forces nonprofit leadership to become financially savvy (when they may not have been before) and begin to use money as an integral management tool.
How does your nonprofit's strategic plan stack up? Is it big enough, small enough, and well financed? If you want to learn more about what a strategic planning process looks like, check out my Strategic Planning page or download the Strategic Planning benefit sheet.

Charting a Nonprofit's Future Direction: A Case Study
I guess I am on a case study kick this week. I do think that actual examples of the paths other nonprofits followed in order to become more effective or more sustainable can be really helpful to other nonprofit leaders in the trenches. So in that spirit, I offer a case study of a small, startup nonprofit ready to grow their impact and their sustainability.
The thing I love about my job the most is that I get to work one-on-one with super smart people who are coming up with innovative solutions to making the world a better place. In particular, lately I've been lucky enough to work with some groups in the civic technology space, a really exciting emerging area where innovative technology solutions are used to make government, and ultimately democracy, more effective.
One of these groups, The Engaging News Project (ENP) is a startup nonprofit aimed at helping news organizations better meet their democratic and business goals in a digital age.
While ENP enjoyed success and the support of some key funders over the past two years, they were ready to move from the project phase to an established organization with sustainable funding and a long-term strategy for achieving impact on the digital news industry.
So ENP hired me to lead their strategic planning effort. With my guidance, ENP created an advisory group of staff and key stakeholders. I led the group to analyze the external environment in which ENP operates, develop their theory of change, define the audiences they want to target, and articulate the goals and objectives and corresponding financial projections of the next 3 years for the organization. I also helped staff create a year 1 operational plan to help execute and monitor the strategic plan.
The end result was a clear 3-year strategic plan with accompanying financial model and an engaged and excited staff and group of advisors.
Because of their new strategic plan, ENP has focused their project development efforts, clearly defined where and with whom they want to work, and detailed their goals for the next 3-years.
They are now working to implement the strategic plan. They are identifying new funders to help support the growth of the organization, expanding their collaborative partners, creating a formal advisory board, and streamlining operations. ENP staff are excited about the new direction and are actively working to have a greater impact on the future of digital news.
As Talia Stroud, Director of the Engaging News Project put it,
As a new entity, we had been doing more of the day-to-day work and hadn't taken the time to think about the bigger picture of where the Engaging News Project was headed and how to get there. Social Velocity helped us to chart a future direction, hone our messaging, and develop a clear plan for our organization. By working with us to figure out our targets, potential collaborators, and goals, Social Velocity helped us to systematically figure out a strong path forward. I can't wait to see what we'll be able to accomplish with these plans in place.
I'm excited to see where the Engaging News Project goes from here and the growing impact they will have on our democracy.

10 Great Social Innovation Reads: May 2015
May was another busy month in the world of social change. For a start there was: a behavioral economics approach to social change, continued focus on civic tech, a tool for calculating a nonprofit's true costs, new definitions of membership in the digital age, the evolving public library, digital sabbaticals, and much more.
Below are my 10 favorite reads in the world of social change in May, but feel free to add to the list in the comments. And if you want a longer list, follow me on Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+, or Facebook.
You can also read 10 Great Reads lists from past months here.
- Perhaps some solutions to social problems lie in behavioral economics. Writing in The New York Times, economists Erez Yoeli and Syon Bhanot and psychologists Gordon Kraft-Todd and David Rand argue that the opinion of others, in this case regarding the preservation of natural resources, is a strong social change motivator.
- Civic tech, (the use of new technology to better engage citizens in democracy) has become quite the buzzword lately. But how do we know which civic tech solutions are actually creating change? Anne Whatley from Network Impact offers some tools for assessment in that arena.
- And another nonprofit tool comes from Kate Barr of the Nonprofits Assistance Fund. She provides a great tool to help nonprofits calculate and then articulate to funders the full costs of their work.
- Daniel Stid from the Hewlett Foundation writes a thoughtful piece on what separates good strategic planning from bad, because as he puts it "The real benefit of planning is not the final document but rather the discipline the process imposes, the new information it generates, the working relationships it fosters, and the conversations, insights, and commitments it sparks." Amen to that!
- In this age of social media and technological connectedness, how do we create more formal structures for belonging to institutions? Melody Kramer, formerly of National Public Radio, is a Knight Visiting Nieman Fellow working on that very question, and she offers some beginning thoughts on the project, including, "Imagine if public radio stations functioned as Main Streets…or in the same way that local public libraries do? It would transform the way people could interact — and participate — in the local news process, and would enhance the stories stations put out on air." Fascinating.
- Speaking of libraries, NPR writer Linton Weeks provides a history of the public library and how it continues to (and must) evolve in the digital age.
- Great philanthropic futurist Lucy Bernholz has been offline for a bit, and it turns out she took a digital sabbatical. She reports that "without the addictive stimulation and distractions of digital life it feels like my brain grew three sizes." What a great (and necessary) idea!
- Writing on the UnSectored blog, Marie Mainil describes the importance of building and supporting social movements to create global social change. As she puts it "Collecting data on the dynamics of local, regional, national, and international social change campaigns is the next frontier of organizing for social change. With a visual multi-level collection of ladders of engagement from across the world, social change actors would be able to better plan and coordinate tactics and actions at scale, thereby increasing their chances of success."
- In May the Center for Effective Philanthropy held their biennial conference. Ethan McCoy provides great roundups of day one and day two. I almost feel like I was there!
- Never one to put things lightly, William Schambra cautions against what he sees as the hubris of tech philanthropists and his fear that they desire to "fundamentally…reshape the social sector in their own image, based on their supreme faith in advanced technology."

7 Questions To Guide Your Nonprofit Strategy
I've been leading several strategic planning efforts lately, and I am always amazed at the nonprofit sector's general fear (borderline hatred) of strategic planning. I get it, strategic planning has traditionally been done so badly that many have just given up on the idea altogether. But that's a mistake.
Without a long-term strategy for what your nonprofit is trying to accomplish and how you will marshal people and money to reach it, you are just spinning your wheels.
Rather than be a feared and misunderstood exercise, strategic planning can actually be distilled into 7 key questions. Now granted, these are really challenging questions, but they can be the impetus for some thoughtful strategic decision-making among board and staff. These 7 questions must be tackled in the following order because they build on each other.
The 7 questions are:
- What is Our Marketplace Map?
As a nonprofit you will be most successful when your 1)core competencies (what you do better than anyone else) uniquely position you to address 2)a community need, apart from your 3)competitors or collaborators. So the first step in strategic planning is to map those three areas and figure out where your nonprofit lies. But because you cannot create a strategic plan in a vacuum, you need to do market research to see how future trends might impact your place in the market.
- What is Our Theory of Change?
A Theory of Change is an argument for why your nonprofit exists. It helps you articulate who your target populations are and how you employ your core competencies to change outcomes for them. It is a fundamental building block to any strategic plan because if you don't know what you are ultimately trying to accomplish and for whom, how can you possibly chart a future course?
- What Are Our Vision and Mission?
These two statements are NOT feel-good rallying cries. Rather they are instrumental elements of your future direction. Your nonprofit's Vision relates to the "Outcomes" section of your Theory of Change and describes how you want the world to be different because of your work. And the Mission relates to the "Activities" section of your Theory of Change and describes your day-to-day work to move toward that Vision. Any good strategic plan takes a hard look at the two statements and revises them as necessary.
- What is Our Mission and Money Mix?
Once you've articulated your Theory of Change you need to analyze your current programs to understand how well each one contributes to 1) your Theory of Change, and 2) the financial viability of your organization. This allows you to understand where to grow, cut, or restructure programs to align with your strategy.
- What Are Our 3-Year Goals?
Given your long-term Theory of Change, you then need to determine what 3-5 broad things (goals) you want to accomplish in the next 3-years. A strategic plan is too limited if it only charts 1-2 years out, and 4+ years is so far ahead that it's probably meaningless. Typically those 3-5 goals break down like this: 1-3 program-related goals, 1 money goal, and 1 infrastructure (board, staff, systems) goal.
- How Will We Finance The Plan?
A strategic plan is not effective without an attached financing plan because there is no action without money. So as part of the "money goal" of your strategic plan you must project how revenue and expenses (and capital investments if necessary) will flow to your nonprofit over the timeframe of the plan. This becomes your financing plan.
- How Will We Operationalize It?
So many strategic plans have started out strong but withered on the vine because they had no implementation or monitoring plans attached. You have to include a way both to track the tactics necessary to achieve your goals and to monitor regularly whether the strategic plan is coming to fruition. Do not overlook this most critical (and often forgotten) piece.
There is a smart way to create nonprofit strategy. But it requires hard questions and the time and effort necessary to thoughtfully answer them.

When Should Your Nonprofit Cut Programs?
One of the most difficult decisions a nonprofit leader faces is whether to cut a program. The program might be draining staff and offering few results to clients, but once a nonprofit launches a program it becomes almost instantly institutionalized. Even if the program eventually no longer makes strategic sense, it is almost impossible to convince board, staff and donors to end it.
But for a nonprofit to be most effective, its leaders must understand the financial and social impact of all of its programs and make strategic decisions accordingly. And the way to do that is with a Program Analysis Matrix.
Nonprofit leaders are driven by the desire to provide as many services as possible, so to shut down an established program seems so wrong. But nonprofit leaders must regularly analyze their portfolio of programs in order to understand how well each program contributes to the organization's mission and financial sustainability.
When I assess a client's financial model, one of the first things I employ is a Program Analysis Matrix that analyzes the social and financial impact of their entire portfolio of programs. I chart all programs and activities comparing each program's ability to:
- Contribute to the social change the nonprofit is working toward ("Social Impact" on the x axis), and
- Add or subtract financial resources to/from the organization ("Financial Returns" on the y axis).
A Program Analysis Matrix looks like this:
Each program that a nonprofit operates is placed in one of the four boxes depending on how well that program contributes to the social impact (or mission) the nonprofit is working towards and the financial sustainability of the organization. The four options are:
- Sustaining: the program has low social impact (it doesn't appreciably contribute to the nonprofit's ability to create social change), but does provide financial resources to the organization.
- Beneficial: the program has high social impact and provides financial resources to the organization—this is the best of both worlds.
- Detrimental: the program provides low social impact and drains financial resources from the organization—this is the worst of both worlds.
- Worthwhile: the program provides high social impact but drains financial resources.
This Program Analysis Matrix helps to surface issues that a nonprofit must address, for example when some programs are providing no benefits, or there are too many mission-related programs that don't attract funding. Typically, a nonprofit has an abundance of "Worthwhile" programs that are integral to the mission and provide important social impact but are financially draining to the organization. In a situation like that, board and staff need to get strategic about developing programs that are "Sustaining" or "Beneficial" and provide a positive financial return.
Board and staff should work together to plot all current programs in the matrix. Once completed, the matrix can help make the appropriate strategic decisions (labeled as "Strategy" above) about which programs to "cut," "maintain," "nurture," or "expand."
This analysis can help a nonprofit take a hard look at everything they are doing and start to make some hard decisions. A conversation about cutting programs is always incredibly difficult, but with the right data behind it, the conversation can be a logical, as opposed to emotional, one.

Luckily, 1985 was a good year."

"Tired of typical Energy shots that currently dominate the market with their toxic taste and less-than-credible-ingredients, Happy Planet has brought their reputation and knowledge of healthy natural beverages to the emerging shots category. Happy Planet Shots are formulated to address four specific occasions: Energy, Immunity, Detox and Glow.
Much time and effort was spent creating a bottle that was not only unique, but also environmentally-responsible and cost-effective. The result is a tall, slender, square-sided bottle with a full shrink-wrap film enabling total coverage of the bottle with graphics. The illustrations clearly depict the benefit of the shot; a shield for immunity, a sun for glow, a first-aid cross for detox and a lightening bolt for energy."

Tuesday Tip/Trend - Unique Gift Containers
Still working on putting gifts together? Sometimes, the devil is in the details, a nice container can make even the simplest of gifts more special. Case in point, last week was all about teacher gifts...we have some amazing teachers and staff and we love to show how much we appreciate their hard work.
Jumbo lemon cupcakes in a plastic container with
a cute label
from Toad's Treasures? Perfect in it's simplicity. I scored my 16 ounce containers at Dollar Tree but you can duplicate the look with
similar ones
from Garnish.
I'm currently crushing on clear acrylic boxes; it's the inside that counts, so they don't need much embellishment. One of our teacher gifts was an ornament, nestled in paper shred in a 4" box. That's it!
Layered candy elements in a clear box with a label? Perfect treats for our young friends, thanks again
Paper & Cake
; I think I'm done talking about this now.
Loving this idea from
and can't wait to try it out...place your gift in a votive holder, top with a paper muffin liner, and tie with a colorful string or ribbon!
Giving a bottle of wine? Check out Martha's
3 different ways
of making it fabulous!
It's a gift within a gift...wrap your treasure in a lovely scarf like this
BOBO wrapping scarf
How cute would this be as
a gift of milk and cookies
or other treats for the neighbors?
Do you have a ton of paper cups laying around? No worries, it too can become a great gift holder. Check out this tutorial from
Zakka Life
The king of creative gift containers? Garnish has an endless supply of creative ways to make everything look like Martha herself put it together! Look at how fun it is to package something as easy as
cookie dough, in a soup container
with a cute label?

Funding Unsuccessful
This project's funding goal was not reached on November 30, 2013.
A documentary feature film and web series dissecting the art, craft and community of horror video games.
This project's funding goal was not reached on November 30, 2013.
Thanks for your support, everyone! We will return... Follow the project on Facebook, Twitter, Vimeo, Tumblr, and Pinterest.
What the press said...
"Exceptionally wonderful looking, yet fear inducing... This is a worthy documentary to fund, for a number of reasons." - Gamer Brew
"Reads like a who's who in the world of horror gaming... I fully support projects like this and you should too." - Bloody Disgusting
"The pitch video above is brilliantly put together . If the finished documentary looks as good as this, we should be in for a chilling treat." - Den Of Geek
"Horror gamers unite! Support PLAYING WITH FEAR… if you dare!!" - Ain't It Cool
"I backed the project straight after I watched the atmospheric introduction movie." - Survival Horror Online
"A spectacular list of horror games and their developers from all over the world have been confirmed for appearances in the film." - Indiestatik
"A documentary that focuses on the best of the genre sounds like an ideal way to see what I should be playing next." - Sitting Now
"If you have any love for the horror genre, and love watching stories about it, then you should pledge if you like what you see." - Kickstart Ventures
A brief overview of the history of horror video games (possibly NSFW!)...
Nov 16: More game additions! We'll be exploring the development of Gamecube classic Eternal Darkness (and upcoming Shadow Of The Eternals) by Denis Dyack and Precursor Games, along with the work of Climax Studios (Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, beautiful-looking unannounced title, and more), and great-looking indie games Thanatophobia by Death Knell Games and The Last Cargo by Ehnenu.
Nov 6: Silent Hill! With your support, Konami's classic survival-horror series will be explored in our film! We can't wait to delve into the history and development of these amazing games and meet some of the people behind them...
Nov 4: We're excited to announce a number of new additions to the film! Rob Laderos and the team behind classic horror game The 7th Guest (currently Kickstarting a sequel), UK indie devs Sticky D Pad with Sole, and Team Junkfish with Project: Maize, as well as Agustin Cordes with Scratches and Asylum! Keep watching for more film additions, press, updates, and perks add-ons coming soon!
Playing With Fear is an independent exploration of the relentlessly creative world of horror video games. The project will shine a light on the stories behind the enduring classics, the ingenuity of the new harbingers of our digital nightmares, and the speed of technological innovation nurturing the global renaissance of interactive horror.
Across 2014 we'll begin production on a candid celebration of the world's most terrifying and exhilarating releases, observing the community at the heart of the survival horror revival, and exploring the possibilities and potential the future may hold. Our goal is to make the definitive documentary about the horror gaming genre and the talented people dedicating their lives to scaring the bejesus out of us.
We'll be shooting:
Visits to atmospheric locations that have both influenced horror game designers and given them indispensable audio-visual reference material during development.
We'll be celebrating the behemoths of horror and the onslaught of the independents - the ever expanding accessibility of game creation, funding and distribution tools has revolutionised the industry and ushered in the resurgence of survival horror.
We've confirmed the involvement of a variety of hugely talented game developers and artists from Sweden, Norway, Poland, USA and UK, among them:
Use cameras to interact with Indonesian ghosts in a deserted town, in this terrifying new survival horror from developers Digital Happiness
Amnesia: The Dark Descent and the Penumbra series are modern classics. First-person horror at its finest and notoriously terrifying, while Frictional's upcoming SF horror SOMA looks set to be just as mesmerising.
Fran Bow is an absorbing point and click adventure following a young girl and her cat Mr. Midnight, created by versatile husband-and-wife team Killmonday, and based on artist Natalia Figueroa's own childhood struggles.
Year Walk by Simogo is a beautiful and distinctive iOS horror-puzzle game based on Swedish folklore and released with an accompanying mini encyclopedia created in collaboration with ethnology expert Theodor Almsten.
Krillbite's superbly atmospheric Among The Sleep is a first-person horror seen through the eyes of a 2-year-old child. The sound design was recorded in a mausoleum and the game is compatible with Oculus Rift's immersive technology.
In The Vanishing Of Ethan Carter, a detective with supernatural abilities investigates the disappearance of a missing child in this unsettling weird fiction game currently in development by The Astronauts.
Darkwood is an intense, surreal and non-linear survival horror from talented developers The Acid Wizards, inspired by old school top-down horror games and the works of David Lynch.
See through your assailant's eyes as you are hunted in Paulina Pabis' popular and panic-inducing strategic indie game Eyes.
Matt Gilgenbach, fresh off his Kickstarter success, delivers a beautifully disquieting experience in Neverending Nightmares, inspired by the art of Edward Gorey as well as Matt's own battles with OCD and depression.
Nevermind by LA-based Erin Reynolds is an ethereal hyper-reality adventure built around a biofeedback sensor challenging the player's own stress responses.
Lunar Software's Routine is a non-linear exploration set on a deserted moon base, with a sleek '80's SF aesthetic and an experience heightened by the threat of permadeath.
From The Chinese Room, the creators of evocative exploration Dear Esther and PS4 adventure Everybody's Gone to the Rapture, Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs returns us to the unnerving dread of the Amnesia world.
Thomas Busse seeks to bring the eerie town of Innsmouth and its denizens to life in the upcoming H.P. Lovecraft's Dagon, based on Lovecraft's classic fiction.
Possibly the very first survival horror experience was Ant Attack, Sandy White's innovative 1983 ZX Spectrum game that saw the player fending off hordes of giant ants in the addictive isometric 3D world of Antescher.
Lone Survivor is an enthralling, emotive post-apocalyptic retro style survival horror by developer and composer Jasper Byrne, who has been writing games since he was 8.
Master Reboot from Wales Interactive is a psychological horror adventure set inside a future world where death is no longer final and memories can be revisited.
Mocapgames and Synertial are innovative hardware developers creating exciting new VR / controller systems and motion capture for the gaming industry.
There are many more beyond we want to include, and we'll be toiling tirelessly to convince them all to take part in the production. We'll be adding updates throughout the crowdfund...
There's huge scope to explore this subject and we aim to investigate the length and breadth:
Being avid horror fans ourselves, we want to explore this subject fully. We love the medium of film, but knew we'd need flexibility beyond that, to do it justice. When I watch an interview with someone I admire, I'm hoping the interviewers will make the most of the opportunity. Being greedy, I want to know everything! I hope for something meatier than a few minutes, and fresher than the same old questions.
That's our hope - to do more than squish so much down to 90 minutes, only shared at the end of production. What if an interview was fascinating, from start to finish? What if all of them were? What about breaking news or exciting developments? We'd have to wait to share that with our audience, for up to or more than a year.
Our priority is to follow the story down whatever rabbit hole it needs to go, giving the fans the best portrait of the genre. It seemed to us a cross platform project starting with a web series and ending with a feature documentary would be a great choice.
If this crowdfund is successful through your support, we'll be kicking off production in Jan 2014, or earlier if schedules are compatible. We'll be editing and uploading the free webisodes throughout 2014, culminating in a feature documentary we'll take on the festival circuit. It matters to us so much that all aspects of the production be the pinnacle of high calibre independent production, from the cinematography to the locations, from the music to the quality of research put into the profiles and interviews, and everything in between. The length and regularity of the webisodes will be based on how much amazing footage we're gathering, and how much the production is expanding! Our funding target above is the minimum budget we need for completing the international profiles we've currently confirmed. To be the best it can be, our ultimate goal is to feature the whole history, the AAA developers, and keep adding horror game projects starting up during 2014.
Here's a break down of what's up for grabs. We hope there'll be something for everyone. If not, or you want to mix perks from different packages, drop us a line. We want to hear from you - give us your feedback about the crowdfund and the project; tell us what you're looking forward to.
1/11 UPDATE: All backers at the 'Regenerator' (£50) tier and upwards will also receive the Digital Artbook! (previously only available at the £175 level).
All funds will make it possible for the core team (Ant, Dissolved Paul and Dave, them up there ^) to start production and hire some more talented collaborators. The money will also cover essential equipment, travel and accommodation, legal fees, insurance, Kickstarter costs, and perks fulfilment for our backers.
Anthony Carpendale: Director - Camera Operator – Editor – Writer - Producer
Anthony is an award-winning film-maker currently residing in Brighton, UK. He has 15 years experience, often making low / no budget horror shorts (our pitch video being an example), music promos and TV comedy, with his and Dave Packer's recent work praised by the late great film critic Roger Ebert as "gobsmackingly brilliant". A lifelong horror gamer, he discovered his favourite genre aged 9 during late nights hooked on the very first survival horror game - Ant Attack for the ZX Spectrum. His all-time favourites include Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly, Resident Evil 4, Dead Space, Silent Hill 2, and Amnesia: The Dark Descent - although he hasn't yet completed the latter as it's just too terrifying. Check out more of Anthony's film work here - http://www.vimeo.com/antcarpendale
Dissolved: Composer and Sound Designer
Dissolved is a Scottish Electronic musician from Glasgow, formed in 1989. His influences are an eclectic blend of film soundtracks, drone and ambient, a love of classical melody and for the sound of early 90's Warp and related electronic music, as well as all kinds of experimental underground music. This is tied in with a passion for art, the natural world, chemistry, games and horror films. As well as releasing music on his own label Dissolvedamberrooms, he also puts out music with Daddytank Records and the Section27 net label, does film soundtrack work and releases music under other pseudonyms. Dissolved will be creating an atmospheric soundtrack and an abundance of additional music for both the web series and feature film. Some of his all-time favourite horror games include Fatal Frame 4: Mask of the Lunar Eclipse, Silent Hill: Shattered Memories, Clive Barker's Undying, Eternal Darkness, and Resident Evil (Gamecube).
Dave Packer: Animator and Visual Effects
Multi-talented mastermind behind Sheep Films, Dave has been creating clever, funny and creative live-action shorts and animations for over a decade. A versatile film-maker, he has created visuals for Peter Gabriel, LCD Soundsystem, and The Human League, as well as TV comedy 'The Strange World Of Max X' for Deutsche Welle (here's an episode Ant and Dave made together - Cat Controller). Dave created some great visual effects for the Kickstarter pitch video above, and will be helping to make this film look even better.
This is an all-or-nothing campaign, if we do not reach our funding target the film may not see the light of day... We won't give up and will keep striving to find funding in other ways. Everything helps, big or small.
If you can't afford to donate, please share this page as much as you can with anyone you think might be interested. If you can, vote for us on Reddit, subscribe to our behind-the-scenes blog, join us on Twitter and Facebook, and follow this Kickstarter page to be kept in the loop on the project and learn more about the fantastic game developers we'll be profiling...
Special thanks for assisting on this project go to:
Dave Packer for excellent visual effects work on the pitch video; Dissolved for feedback, horror gaming wisdom, beautiful music and sound design; The great Paul O'Connell, for the poster art for this Kickstarter campaign; Lisa Carpendale (finances, business, cabaret!), Luke Murray-Carpendale (ghost baby Myling in pitch video), and Steve Murray (for letting us use Luke as ghost baby); Noel Bateman for sterling voice-over work on the pitch video; Talented collaborator Terence Drew (lenses, tea, scowling); Helen 'The Black Widow' Dunleavy (proof-reading, cat wrangling, shouting); Joel Lim for lots of great PR info; Nic Ho Chee for great feedback and for keeping the TEFOSAV flame burning; Rely On Horror's CJ Melendez for excellent contacts. Last but not least, we'd like to thank the game developers for their support of the project and permission to reference them on the page. We can't wait to work with you!
To all our backers, words cannot express what your support means to us and how awesome you are! As far as we're concerned:
Thanks for your support! / Tack för ert stöd / Takk for din støtte / Dziękujemy za wsparcie / あなたのサポートをありがとう
We anticipate that principle photography will take 9 months, but are setting a window of 12 months to enable mutually beneficial shooting schedules with the people involved. Many of the game developers to be featured are currently hard at work on new projects, so scheduling opportunities to see them in their own environments will be carefully managed. However, should any scheduling conflicts arise, we would adapt the use of funds and explore other methods to involve them (meeting them at events they are committed to, crew members switching responsibilities, hiring second unit or hiring proficient crew residing close to a team in their native country).
We will update campaign supporters on the project's progress every step of the way and alert them in advance to any possible delays so they know what is happening with their money. This is an ambitious project but each phase of production will be preceded by a carefully researched and meticulously planned phase of pre-production, to minimise adverse challenges and maximise our filming time. We are confident that with our production experience, adaptability and commitment we'll deliver a high quality and entertaining web series and feature film.Learn about accountability on Kickstarter

I don't care what Fan and others say. BB&T stock has flopped like a carp for the last few years. People that own this slug should be upset. I Think that upper Management has not earned any bonus or anything beyond regular salary. Come on guys its still not too late to vote for #6 on your porxy.
The proxy vote is for the compensation committee to "consider" - isn't it? They have already done it and their answer was no. I voted against management's recommendations across the board to show dissatisfaction.
Snoit,Are saying that your thoughts are that if proposal 6 passes or gets a high percentage of votes that the compensation committee and board would be arrogant enough to just ignore the shareholders wishes? Regards,Jim

The Longman Reader (Eleventh Edition)by John Langan Judith Nadell Eliza A. Comodromos Deborah Coxwell-Teague
For courses in English Composition. The acclaimed rhetorical modes reader, with remarkably detailed writing guidance Best-seller The Longman Reader includes its abundant and highly praised pedagogy as well as a wealth of readings organized by patterns of development (an alternative table of contents organizes them thematically). The opening chapters focus on reading critically and the writing process. The subsequent chapters begin with detailed writing instruction, including an annotated student paper and revision and peer review checklists, and end with professional essays. These new and beloved professional essays range widely in subject matter and approach - from the humorous to the informative, from personal meditation to argument - and capture students' interest while demonstrating specific patterns of development. The Longman Reader shares the same readings and other core material with The Longman Writer.
The Longman Writer: Rhetoric, Reader, Research Guide, and Handbook (7th edition)by John Langan Judith Nadell Eliza A. Comodromos
Clear, step-by-step writing instruction, ample annotated student essays, and extensive practice opportunities for writing have made The Longman Writer one of the most successful methods-of-development guides for college writing. Created by the authors of the best-selling Longman Reader, the text draws on decades of teaching experience to integrate the best of the "product" and "process" approaches to writing. Its particular strengths include an emphasis on the reading-writing connection, a focus on invention and revision, attention to the fact that patterns blend in actual writing, and an abundance of class-tested activities and assignments--more than 350 in all.

Quasimondo struggles with Lovecraft homage 'Love & Cthulhu'
Stephen King once toyed with writing a story about traveling inside the pillow on which H.P. Lovecraft laid his head each night, en route to creating the nightmarish tales that King rightly describes as "uniquely terrible in all of American literature."
Daunted and even frightened by such an assignment, King never did it, concluding that the idea of trying to "put all that into a story" would be "ludicrous." »Read Full Article

The traditional Tri-State Fair parade kicks off the weeklong activities once again this year. However, the starting time and the route for Saturday's parade have changed.
Construction at the Amarillo Civic Center has necessitated changes in the parade route for this year's Tri-State Fair Parade.
The parade will begin at 11th Avenue and will proceed along Polk Street to Third Avenue before turning east to Johnson Street for disbursement. All units will be released at Johnson.
In addition, the public is encouraged to be on Polk Street by 9:30 a.m. in order to see pre-show entertainment provided by the Marion County Sheriff's Department Precision Motorcycle Drill Squad.
The Indiana group has performed throughout the world at events including presidential inaugurations and the Indianapolis 500.
The patriotic-flavored parade begins at 10 a.m. Area police, fire and emergency services units will serve as grand marshals.
The theme for this year's parade is "Panhandle Heroes."
Two longtime fair volunteers, Mateel Brown and Marie Porter, will act as honorary grand marshals for the parade. Brown and Porter have a combined record of more than 80 years of volunteering at the Tri-State Fair.
The Amarillo Police Department has advised that no cars can be parked downtown on Polk Street after 6 a.m. Saturday.
All street traffic must be cleared for the parade. Towing will be enforced.
Veterans of Foreign Wars are sponsoring the distribution of hundreds of American flags all along the parade route. VFW members, along with Girl Scouts, will be handing the flags out before the parade begins.
Almost 150 units are expected to participate in this year's Tri-State Fair Parade in the categories of Military (Motorized and Marching), Equestrian, JROTC Unit, Youth, Open, Floats and Bands (Junior High/1A-5A).
Trophies will be awarded and the winning float also will win a cash prize of $400.
Kay Ledbetter is a member of the Tri-State Fair Board of Directors.

Butt-dragging. Carpet-surfing. Booty-scooting. These colorful terms have all been applied to one of the more common unusual actions of our canine companions: dragging and rubbing their rear end along the floor. Why do dogs scoot and rub their butts on the carpet? Let's examine some of the many potential causes of "hiney-hauling."
Anal Sacs

Chocolate. Potato chips. Ice cream.
You know the triggers — and the power they have over you. Rest assured you're not alone.
Food cravings can have little to do with hunger, though, and lots to do with mental and physiological components. Let's take a look at the main causes of these cravings and some tips for overcoming them.
Causes of food cravings
Leptin resistance
By John Nelson
Pick a tree — any tree — and try to describe it using only eight words — in Latin. That's what botanist Thomas Walter did in 1788, after studying and then naming this tree. His eight words (see below) indicate that the tree has paired needles, a short, oblong or egg-shaped cone and a smooth trunk.
Having sight, being sighted, has taken on new meaning for me.
Two of my friends have been pivotal in my deepening awareness of vision's wonder. One is a woman who has become totally blind after years of lessening sight. The other is a man who awakened one morning to the reality that he had no sight in one eye.
Both individuals, in their differing circumstances, were challenged to accept a loss and to find in it a gift. No doubt, this was not an easy task. Nor is it one that is completed in one fell swoop.
Shopping local is a very popular trend these days, especially shopping at farmer's markets or local roadside shops for fresh fruits and vegetables.
Not only does it allow us to get the freshest possible produce, it helps the local economy. Buying directly from farmers gives them a better return for their produce and can help a family farm compete in the food marketplace. Buying local food also keeps dollars circulating in the community and increases local food security.

The event is designed to raise money for Hope Harbor Home clients to pay for legal representation when seeking restraining orders and pressing criminal charges against their abusers.

Holy Father, Eminences, and Excellencies,
We rejoice that the Holy Father has captured the world's attention and so much good will for the Christian faith! Like others we are deeply moved by his expressions of love and mercy, echoing the love and mercy of Christ, especially for those who are defenseless and abandoned.
It is in this context that we welcome the decision to convene an Extraordinary Synod of Bishops to examine the challenges to marriage and the family. Like each of you, we believe the family is, with the Church itself, the greatest institutional manifestation of Christ's love. For those who wish to love as He would have us love, marriage and the family are indispensable, both as vehicles of salvation and as bulwarks of human society.
Recent popes have made these points abundantly clear. For example, Pope Benedict XVI wrote that, "Marriage is truly an instrument of salvation, not only for married people but for the whole of society." And, in Evangelii Gaudium, Your Holiness wrote that "the indispensable contribution of marriage to society transcends the feelings and momentary needs of the couple."
This Synod is an opportunity to express timeless truths about marriage. Why do those truths matter? How do they represent true love, not "exclusion" or "prejudice," or any of the other charges brought against marriage today? Men and women need desperately to hear the truth about why they should get married in the first place. And, once married, why Christ and the Church desire that they should remain faithful to each other throughout their lives on this earth. That, when marriage gets tough (as it does for most couples), the Church will be a source of support, not just for individual spouses, but for the marriage itself.
You have written so powerfully, Holy Father, of the importance of a new evangelization within the Church: "An evangelizing community gets involved by word and deed in people's daily lives; it bridges distances, it is willing to abase itself if necessary and it embraces human life, touching the suffering flesh of Christ in others."
May we humbly suggest that in the context of marriage and family life your words are a call to personal responsibility, not only for our own spouses and children, but for the marriages of those God has put by our side: our relatives and friends, those in our churches and in our schools.
The stakes are high. According to a 2013 Child Trends international report: "Dramatic increases in cohabitation, divorce, and nonmarital childbearing in the Americas, Europe, and Oceania over the last four decades suggest that the institution of marriage is much less relevant in these parts of the world." In the United States the marriage rate is the lowest ever recorded, unmarried cohabitation is rapidly becoming an acceptable alternative to marriage, and more than half of births to women under 30 years of age now occur outside marriage. Among countless other negative associations, each of these trends has been linked to lower net worth and economic mobility, poverty, and welfare – for women and children, in particular.
Among existing marriages, many are fragile and strained. Between forty and fifty percent of all first marriages in the U.S. are projected to end in divorce. This rate rises sharply with each successive remarriage and research suggests the reason is not low marital quality, but weak commitment.
The consequences of divorce and cohabitation for children and adults are many and diverse – from poverty and lower educational achievement to poorer physical health; from lower marital commitment in adulthood to earlier death. And while every nation is unique, studies show that the impact of these trends spans the globe. A small sampling of such studies: China, Finland, Sweden, Uruguay, Mexico, Greece, Africa, and East Asian Pacific nations.
The costs of pornography to societies are significant. Studies of pornography's impact on relationships suggest it is a major contributor to the destruction of marriages. Unfortunately, long-term research on pornography's effect on marriage is virtually nonexistent.
So called "no fault divorce" laws in the U.S. and many other nations have licensed a system in which judges and lawyers facilitate the dissolution of marriages, often against the will of spouses who stand firm in their marital commitment.
Despite the bleakness of these trends, we are encouraged and made resolute by the Holy Father's exhortation: "Challenges exist to be overcome! Let us be realists, but without losing our joy, our boldness and our hope-filled commitment."
Perhaps the boldest new way we can evangelize married couples (and by extension their children's future marriages) is to build small communities of married couples who support each other unconditionally in their vocations to married life. These communities would provide networks of support grounded in the bonds of faith and family, commitment to lifelong marriage, and responsibility to and for each other.
Here we offer some practical ways to create and sustain such communities:
Commission the Pontifical Council on the Family to conduct cross-discipline, longitudinal research on the role of pornography and "no fault" divorce in the marriage crisis.
Educate seminarians. Provide mandatory courses covering social science evidence on the benefits of marriage, threats to marriage, and the consequences of divorce and cohabitation to children and society.
Train priests to showcase in their homilies the spiritual and social value of marriage, contemporary challenges to it, and parish help for troubled marriages. A recent study found that 72% of American Catholic women say the weekly homily is their primary source for learning about the faith.
Create small, vibrant networks of strong married couples as mentors at the parish level, available to give spouses the tools to sustain healthy, lifelong marriages.
Educate parishioners on the extraordinary influence they can have on the marriages of friends and family. Social science data show that the presence of divorced family and friends increases one's own risk of divorce. Alternatively, the data suggest that family members and friends can increase commitment and satisfaction within marriages of those they love through their example and support.
Encourage and support the reconciliation of married couples who are separated or have been divorced by civil courts.
Request bishops worldwide to initiate regular prayers during Sunday Mass for strong, faithful marriages.
Support efforts to preserve what is right and just in existing marriage laws, to resist any changes to those laws that would further weaken the institution, and to restore legal provisions that protect marriage as a conjugal union of one man and one woman, entered into with an openness to the gift of children, and lived faithfully and permanently as the foundation of the natural family.
Support religious freedom in divorce courts. Many do not know that religious freedom is routinely violated by divorce judges who ignore or demean the views of a spouse who seeks to save a marriage, keep the children in a religious school, or prevent an abandoning spouse from exposing the children to an unmarried sexual partner. Begin a consortium of attorneys and legislators to combat this problem.
To accomplish any of these goals on an international scale would be a great step forward for marriages and families. To accomplish them all may turn the worldwide marriage crisis on its head.
With your leadership we will help marriages to succeed and flourish by placing the greatest value on marital commitment – at every level of society, in every corner of the world. We thank Your Holiness, Eminences, and Excellencies for taking up this vital task and you may be assured of our prayers for its great success.
