Support Us
Conversation Week is truly a grassroots effort that depends on the involvement of hosts, sponsors, and partners.
Become a Host
The absolute number one way to support Conversation Week is to register as a host, get trained, and have a conversation. That’s the whole point! Click here for more information.
Recruit a Host
If you know someone else - anywhere! - that you think would be interested in becoming a host, tell them about Conversation Week! Feel free to call them, email them, or meet with them. Look below for a template email script you can use to invite them to take a look at the website.
Sponsor a Host
We are asking every host for a $25 donation to cover the cost of receiving the training in Conversation Cafe, a package with advertising material for their conversation, a gift from our partner Skype (a headset and software package that allows you to make phone calls through your computer), and support from a Mentor in setting up their Conversation Cafe. A bargain to be sure, but for some hosts, even that is beyond their means. Please consider sponsoring as many hosts as you can through a donation of $25, $50, $75, $100 or more. You will be listed as a host benefactor on the website.

Obviously, this project costs time and money. While the steering committee is donating many hours to design, coordinate and oversee this grand global event, there are still hard costs.
Your gift will make an extraordinary difference in this innovative effort to create a way for any group, on any topic, to take the pulse of the planet through hundreds of small conversation circles considering a set of crucial questions and reporting their insights. Imagine global Conversation Days or Weeks on other issues: ending wars, creating peace, curing diseases, conserving the land, skies and waters for future generations, or…. What is your passion? Imagine everyone talking about that! Conversation Week is working hard to make that possible. Please join us in building this capacity through your financial gift.

Hi ,
I just heard about a project I think you would interested in learning about, and even joining. It’s called Conversation Week and is an effort to get hundreds of people trained to host a small conversation in their local community at the end of March 2007.
I think you would make a great host! There is more information at www.ConversationWeek.org.
