Vision, Mission,
History and Ultimate Destiny of CAN DO!
How Many
Pieces
of the CAN DO!
Ultimate Success Puzzle
Are You Interested In?
CAN DO! evolved out of several years of
experimentation, primarily by
CENTER SPACE (the Center for
Spiritual, Personal And Community Empowerment) which helped
launch and manage the evolution of CAN DO! as described in this
newsletter
clipping. The research and development process combined personal development and community
development in Kankakee, Illinois, Muncie, Indiana, Gary,
Indiana, Utica, New York and Nassau in The Bahamas.
Below
is just one of hundreds of positive newspaper articles
and letters of support about CAN
DO! and related programs and projects in nine states and three
countries.
Click Here for a list of the
individuals and organizations we wish to thank and honor for
their contributions, leadership and support. We especially
appreciate Mr. Walter J. Charlton and Dr. John P. Grumish who
have both been given the Ultimate Destiny Hall of Fame Award
for their outstanding CAN DO! contributions.

The purpose of this web site is to
share how CAN DO! evolved and help anyone who is interested in
discovering how you can do too! The web site resources are
provided in the major categories of Personal
Growth and Development, Organizational
Development (which includes non-profit organizations
businesses and churches) and Community
Development.
If you would prefer to learn more about CAN
DO! by reading stories, we have a few of those too. For example,
you might enjoy Together We CAN
DO!, the Story of Norman Vincent Peale, Les Brown, Pretty Woman
and the Chinese Bamboo Tree,
The Art and Science of Community,
Ultimate Destiny? Who Me?
You've Got To Be Kidding! and
A Lifetime In Pursuit of
Community.
We'll
share with you a couple of the most successful case stories, the
Community Resource
Center in Kankakee, Illinois in conjunction with a Community
Development Corporation and the Success
Center Partnership in conjunction with a Public Housing
Authority.
We'll
also share our vision of Expanding
the Circle of Success, a project designed to provide
expanded access to state-of-the-art development training
resources to previously under-served populations.
This includes
our plans to serve as the catalyst for the donation of 100
million dollars of empowerment training resources through 10,000
locally initiated Empowerment
Resource Centers™ and ETMS™,
Empowerment Training Mentoring Systems™.
Our
campaign to Expand the Circle
of Success will be launched in the third quarter of 2008
with a Request for Proposals
(RFP). The RFP will invite
potential community and organizational sponsors of an
Empowerment Resource Center and or Empowerment
Training Mentoring System to apply for a free donation of
either program. The only investment the sponsors will need to
cover is the cost of travel and training of the local CAN DO!
Empowerment facilitator. This week long training-of-trainers
will be provided at various locations across North America
initially.
 The
RFP process includes a form that applicants complete and submit
along with
their request for the donation of an ERC or ETMS. In
some instances, CAN DO! and
our sponsors will invite
a
municipality to participate as a prototype.
An example of the
letter of invitation is provided along with an overview of how the
projects are designed to become totally self-funding.
Our
rather ambitious goal for the 10,000 locally initiated community
based empowerment centers by 2012 is based on about 30 years of
"proof of concept" with previous award-winning models
and prototypes that will be documented on this web site.
Now we
are prepared to share the results of several years worth of
research and development in the You CAN
DO! Too Resource Manual. It includes templates for producing major
events, community newsletter, a 10
Step Co-Creative Visioning and Strategic Planning Process,
organizational development documents, business plans, marketing
plans, project work plans, sponsorship campaigns, etc,
