Greetings!
Yesterday I visited Greater Good Northwest to see a demo of the shelter bags they are bringing to our area (700 so far!). They are one of the many organizations in our region doing good work to help people who are on the streets. Also, I took some time to create some videos about my current thinking now that I've been campaigning for a couple of months. See the video above which is an overview and this one about trees and climate change.
I've had many chances to get out in front of people over the last couple of weeks here are links to all of the recent appearances. The KATU TV interview (I'm the video at the bottom of the page) went well. I'm also pretty happy with the OPB Think Out Loud radio piece.
I've hosted 5 public speaking class/practice sessions and there is 1 left - come join me next Monday, May 15th @ 11 am - sign up here or at the link below, and invite any friends you think could benefit from improving their public speaking skills. This is a free offering.
There is so much to say about running for office. It's a bit of a roller-coaster - moving from conversation to conversation - hearing from people I know and those I don't with various questions and thoughts. It's certainly been a good nudge for me to move my life forward. It's also given me lots of opportunities to practice public speaking and hopefully move some policies forward through campaigning.
And, I turn 62 this Thursday! So, happy birthday to me! 8 days till election day May 16th!
Take care and VOTE!!! And make sure your friends are Voting, too!
Yours,
Albert Kaufman, Candidate for Multnomah County Commission - District 3
