Multitudes
of these believing people put YES! International {Youth Empowered
Solutions} onto a plateau whose foundation became as firm as a rock
without lava. www.yesintl.com
From
1988 through 1993 ~ YES! jolted several continents, bringing empowered
youth together through trained facilitators, coaching the negatives
of 'substance use and abuse'. YES! broke history in television and
satellite hook-ups and became endorsed by the UN as an International
exemplar among the young.
From
1994 through 2000 ~ YES! became the 1st online charity in the world,
developing global round-tables, chaired by youth, who began implementing
their findings into an explosion of data banks which they, the youth,
unanimously concluded should be named after the man who'd become
their White Night: THE CLAUDE I. TAYLOR, O.C. \ Archival Library!
{Chairman Emeritus, Air Canada}
"It's
electrifying to see how young adults are getting their ideas across
in a world often run by the less open-minded people. You know, The
Archival Library creates an utterly fascinating/impactful network
for the YES! generation in every corner of the globe. The library
succinctly expounds unprecedented documentation on how to effectively
help eliminate social ills."
From
the Library - YES! built the best infrastructure in the
world for assisting the '30 something & under crowds' with
their multitude of problems through an online CamPUS
offering QUICK / FREE / HELP. And the CamPUS was named:
THE THOMAS D. SMYTH \ E-Help CamPUS. {Chairman and
CEO, Retired, H.J. Heinz Co. of Canada}.
Our
E-HELP CamPUS listens to and interacts with millions in
need of assistance" says Jo Lee, and her work during the
past two decades demonstrates the power of that simple
statement.
Her
Corporation has become a phenomenon.
"The
synergy at the CamPUS gives every young adult the
voice to cleverly write and then make right the issue they
dared to dream! Because of this, YES!" she says, "is
endorsed and acclaimed by the UNITED NATIONS as an
INTERNATIONAL EXEMPLAR! UNEP and UNICEF have come to
make the endorsement three fold"
YES!
became acclaimed by the 30 something and under audiences as: 'the
meeting place of the new Century.' Today, the Campus at YES! helps
11+ million people with their problems, each month!
In
Late 2000 ~ something quite incredible happened.
JO
LEE Magazine was born.
HOW
could one have EVER dreamed: that a 'stand-alone' Magazine that
is not a charity and, catering to the opposite audiences of everything
YES! stood for, would become the masked force propelling the YES!
CamPUS to heights beyond embraceable grasps! www.joleemagazine.com
In
2002 ~ The internationally read JO LEE Magazine became another phenomenon.
With the air of luxury, the photo-driven publication now boasts
a 39+ million global readership, from 19 to 90+. Featuring thought-provoking
articles by prominent columnists and feature writers from major
cities around the world - the Seasonal Magazine hits OnLine stands:
March, June, September and December 1 - bringing the world a powerful
experience.
Come
2003 ~ we saw THE PRESTIGIOUS ADESTE MEDAL being born.
JO
LEE Magazine and its worldwide readers would become dedicated to
the support of THE ADESTE Medal. {Latin translation of Joy} An award
taking as its credo the lessons behind Man To Universe.
www.adestelive.com
ADESTE
touches 'the 40 and under' Unsung Heroes who may otherwise not be
recognized - giving them 'the will' to dream and to 'see the future
before it arrives'. The Awardees must have contributed outstanding
benefits to humanity within the categories of Humanities, Social
Justice, Technology, Arts, and Medicine. The Unsung Heroes - with
no advantages.
In
2007, Jo Lee developed a fascinating twist to JO LEE Magazine. All
sponsorship monies generated through the Magazine would be placed
into her next brainchild. AN ENERGY BANK FOR GLOBAL UNSUNG YOUTH.
Youth caught within total despair. With no chance to dream.
For
2009 and beyond ~ Jo Lee again intends to 'Battle The
"Remember my many statements on
'intuition often
beating rational analysis'?" she says. "It brings to memory,
the words of Claude I. Taylor O.C., Chairman Emeritus, Air
Canada:" "Foresight requires a curiosity as deep as it
is
boundless." "As DEEP as it is BOUNDLESS" she reiterates!
Only ONE subject in life can refer to these words! I ask that
you bear with me."
Jo
Lee herself - is a writer, lecturer, Emmy-Award winning
television director.
And
to add to this, her resourceful talent for nursery-rhyme
narration and voice-overs for children's stories in the Disney
type world of feature films and animated promotional
advertising, has been realized worldwide.
It's
true that Jo Lee, Canadian born daughter of an American
mother and Italian Diplomat father has not only lived over a
good part of the world but has made her stay in some of
these places diversely productive.
In
addition to being an Ambassador for humankind, Jo Lee's
won several awards for her Global achievements. Her time
is carefully structured to accommodate the needs when
called upon as a talented strategist, within the corporate/
private world.
Jo
Lee was among the exclusive 162 Canadian women
chosen worldwide for Canada's 'Millennium Honor Roll'. She
surrounds herself with Blue Chip Affiliates and her speaking
engagements evolve around the tough topic: "Battling the
800 thousand pound Gorilla"!
Do
you wonder what a Gorilla and a Philanthropist who
raises dollars by the millions, have in common?
Well,
on a more personal level, Jo Lee holds much to the
dimension of her individual philosophy which has been
incorporated into an autobiographical screenplay for
television.
The
scenes dramatically allude to her private life and her
work with the less-fortunate children and her
entrepreneurship of today. And it continues with a tragedy
far greater than imaginable. Her sudden crisis with
blindness and paralysis which had to be overcome and
conquered for her 2nd round of productivity.
Jo
Lee, the lady who stands foremost for the performance of
YES! and JO LEE Magazine and The ADESTE Medal - brings
not only her extensive background in the entertainment
industry to the fold, but her endless concern for young people.
Today
- our Philanthropist is impassioned by her Obsession
with Volunteers being paid! "Terrible!" she says. "Without
question, life deals exceptions to the rule, as
scientists/missionaries/doctors without borders/the arts ...
the professions critical to the well-being of mankind. These
people could not survive without dollars
|
|
But
most not-for profit organizations have no right to
take from a bank of monies that were brought to the
table, to execute a cause."
Jo
Lee's staccato embracing zeal is already altering the
production of charitable giving. Get ready world! If your
direction is back in the 20th century - move over. Jo Lee
can show you HOW 98% of funds raised, can go
DIRECTLY to YOUR cause. Capital costs and volunteers
will not see a penny.
Several
factors have converged to create this
unprecedented era of Jo Lee on mankind.
The
first was ... "what can I do that other people
cannot"?
The
second behind Jo Lee's enthusiasm was fear!
Jo
Lee has spent her life creating human harmony - and
the past 20 years building one of the worlds' most
successful charities, only to realize that her successes
could become one of the few sustaining 21st Century
success stories in the new world of giving. "We see and
touch and feel more and more of the 1000s of non-
profits undermined by the enormous diminution in
charitable thinking/giving.
The
not-for-profit world", she says, "used to be
controlled by governments which allowed charities,
large and small, varied access 'for monies to employ'
their volunteers. But 'all' governments no longer have
the monies and now, they're ceasing to give within their
own world communities.
The
defection of unpaid volunteers is staggering! Why
must the compassion for volunteering be equated to the
passion for salaried dollars? For the first time in our
history, tiny start-up charities cannot compete head on
with the multi-national charities, for the multi-national
empires are powerful and 'their' mandates, will win."
But Jo Lee also knows her 'blueprint' wins! And it will
win for others because it's won for her! "Proving the
experts wrong - has always been one of my most
enjoyable recreations", she says. "Nurture, more than
nature, is at the root of all great success in life. The
world's greatest power brokers, creative geniuses are
bred, not born. One learns how to be great. No poetic
inspiration is going to give you the power you need. It's
your own will and energy - all the way."
There
is a shift in how non-profits are being conducted
and Jo Lee can tell you how 'to get' without spending!
Her structure finesses this. And her obsession of
genuinely knowing 'how to' compete with all moneyed
worlds brings an unparalleled warmth to everyone's
pocket book. No other theory can be matched for most
countries do not have the economic climate or the
entrepreneurial tradition that lend themselves to this
new era. "We are moving from an old model economy
to a new one. Every not-for-profit must find new ways
of operating. Everything will be different. Old fashioned
greed - is dead! If you're to hit a home run - not only
must the bat, the ball and the crowd's bucks be there
but the pro-bono volunteers must be there to make the
run enterprising, for charity".
There
are two very poignant options here..
If you have it - Charm and Brains, use it. Or find
someone FAST who does." {It's the combination - that
counts}.
Jo
Lee's associates on the Board are convinced that their
universal belief in Jo Lee is a trump card for generations
to come.
"The
late Lord Thomson of Fleet, newspaper and television
magnate, who was a friend of my father and a brilliant
mentor to me, once gave me some advice I've always
followed. He said: "Jo Lee, you can have anything you
want in life, if you want it badly enough to invest the
energy and time. And remember within this chancy world,
you must be diverse with your energy and time."
Our
Promotional Blitz to the 30 something and under
crowds are empowered successes," continues Jo Lee.
"It's exciting to realize that '3' simple words: Youth *
Empowered * Solutions are the bequests YES! gives to
their peers". And her hands fly into the air to compliment
her Italian mannerisms. She continues: "we've skyrocketed
you know, because YES! INTERNATIONAL gives the younger
generation of the world their: Roots and Wings". With her
motions emphasizing each important word she speaks, the
enthusiasm is definitely catchy. "Have you seen, what do
you think of JO LEE Magazine? Isn't it fabulous! Me, in the
publishing business", she says. "And what do you think
of
our fascinating twist to JO LEE which twist is driving it's all
encompassing successes. All advertising monies generated
through JO LEE Magazine are placed into AN ENERGY BANK
FOR GLOBAL UNSUNG YOUTH. And to add to that: our
Editorial staff has no paid salaries. Now, what do you think
of that?"
Yes,
I know you'll fall in love with her - as many have.
If
one were to sum up an impression of Josephine Lea
Mascioli-Mansell it would best be done by giving
applause to her enormous sense of belief in her own
convictions! She believes all things are possible and
that's an invaluable quality.
Intellectually
suave, this Ambassador, who is nothing
but her own self, has taught us that abnormal risks,
intuitive persistence, even in the face of disaster, is
'the card' to dealing with change in a tough world and
re-defining it for her own purposes. Her face is a chronicle
of this experience, style and emotion built on an inherent
structure of sensitivity, depth and wit. A raison d'être
quaint
to no one else.
How
does one catch a Butterfly or a Moonbeam?
Why not ask - Josephina Lea Mascioli-Mansell.
She's a Butterfly moving with seeming languor, characteristic
of herself, flying at heights beyond reach. Not easily captured,
her brilliant multi-colored, hued wings carry her to where ever
she needs to go.. Catch her.
Her
Moonbeams are her messages through thought, opinions and communication
that achieve her goals - complete. Catch them.
Jo Lee's hobbies are Narration and Skeet Shooting. Her inner circle
leans toward the powerful, not celebrity and, she insists that
her vocalizes heard twice per day during her morning and evening
showers is what drives her inner powers to success.
When
asked what her 5 year career goal was she laughed and said: "why,
being 'Morphed' into a phenomenon greater than Minnie Mouse, of
course!"
