Press Releases
WASHINGTON, DC -- (MARKET WIRE), 26 June 2007 -- Ambassador Hope, Chair of Prosperity Studios, Inc., the private sector partner who wrote the plan, built the technology, and raised the funding, has united Wall Street, Silicon Valley, Hollywood and Capital Hill to support The President's Legacy - Hope on AFRICA is calling socially-conscious billionaires from around the world to act this week. Prosperity Studios subsidiary Hopeandcare International researched over 2,000 billionaires and multi-millionaires worldwide and produced a short-list of 24 who had a unique combination of compassion, global vision and appreciation of international finance. Ambassador Hope wrote to over 2,000 individuals and organizations asking for them to provide guarantees so she could complete the Term Sheet offered by the private sector financiers. In 2001, Hopeandcare International Inc. was asked to apply its technology and methodology to the HIV/AIDS pandemic in Africa. Ambassador Hope quickly saw that a solution that included all the stakeholders was vital and that 25 million needed treatments and 13 million orphans required support. She wrote a report that was submitted to Congress and the Senate, and completed 600 briefings on Capital Hill. The report was later published in 2004 as a book "Hope on AFRICA - a divine plan for Africa and your role in it." Ambassador Hope was invited to the White House in August 2006 where she was told by Tony Snow, his Press Secretary, that President Bush 'wanted to do the right thing.' She asked that he hurry up and do the right thing as one orphan was dying every 3 seconds and over 650,000 had died since he signed the Emergency law HR1298 in May 2003. President Bush increased the public sector budget again to $30 billion on 30 May 2007. Prosperity Studios re-submitted the request for the Executive Order to be signed in early June and on the 18th of June 2007, Ambassador Hope received a 'congratulations call' from the Senate on the same day and the financiers flew in to complete the funds release with bankers in New York. Ambassador Hope is meeting with Speaker Pelosi again this week to ensure that the signed Executive Order is published and submitted to Treasury for execution. States Hope, "Both President Bush and Speaker Pelosi appreciate how important this is for America. The President's Legacy-Hope on AFRICA Program will change the global dialogue from 'problems' to 'solutions' and from 'talk' to 'walk'... We all need that shift, being part of a solution is always uplifting and empowering." Hope says, "The public/private funding model has been successfully used in the US Defense sector since 1945. Steven Spielberg and other financially savvy Hollywood Producers use it to fund their movies. Donald Trump uses the model to fund property developments. Fortune 500 companies leverage their Balance Sheet to fund acquisitions every day on Wall Street." She concludes: "This is about the power of knowledge, combining established methods in the investment banking sector to fund healthcare and orphancare for the poor... It's what 191 world leaders voted for at the UN in September 2005 and Prosperity Studios has assembled all the components to make it work for 38 million people in desperate need." The other 'Heroes' that were asked to provide guarantee are: Sergey Brin and Larry Page, Michael Bloomberg, Bono(group of stars), Richard Branson, Warren Buffet, John Chambers, Kenneth Chennault, David Filo and Jerry Yang, Steve Forbes, Bill Gates, Steve Hilton, Elton John, Michael Milken, Rupert Murdock, Narayana Murthy, Dave O'Reilly, Howard Schultz, Martha Stewart, Rex Tillerson, Ted Turner, Oprah Winfrey, and Cheng Yu-Tung.
