KOLAGE ESC statement regarding restructuring process
ON-GOING RESTRUCTURING at COCA-COLA
Due to recent and forthcoming changes in the workplace, the KOLAGE ESC (Executive Steering Committee) would like to know how our members will be affected. These are sad and stressful times for us all, however, friends and contacts are very important. We hope anyone affected by these changes will keep in touch.
The KOLAGE ESC will continue to function with few or no changes. Regardless of whether or not you will be with the Company, KOLAGE would like to welcome your participation in future social functions.
For updated distribution list purposes, please send an e-mail to David Beauchamp and let him know which category below best describes your position: (please respond with the number most closely related to your situation)
Also, if you will be leaving the Company and would like to remain on the distribution list, please e-mail David Beauchamp with your home e-mail address or call him at 404-676-7741.
KOLAGE NETWORKING/JOB CONTACTS
(A KOLAGE member has volunteered his services to help those who are being laid off. He is willing to assist KOLAGE members with networking...etc.)
The reorganization at Coca-Cola is affecting a lot of people. I would like to offer my self as a networking contact for those people that are displaced. I don't know if Kolage is doing anything special to help out members or even how many people are affected.
Please feel free to give out my email address to interested parties. I have contacts all over the city and in many different functional areas.
It would be a good idea for them to give me an idea of what they are looking for...I have lots of contacts in International areas...but keep my "general network" up and running because one never knows when one will need a different job.
(Contact any member of the ESC for more the email address)
KOLAGE SOCIAL EVENT

$35,00
WOW!!!!!!!
And, we had a great time - remember? This FUNdraiser is a great way to do something good for our community, give something of ourselves and have fun - all at the same time. The Big Brothers Big Sisters of Metro Atlanta organization provides mentoring to kids who come from single parent families. The Bowl for Kids' Sake is their biggest fund-raiser of the year and they count on us because without the help of people like you and me, this great organization could not exist.

2000 HRC DINNER INFORMATION (including scheduled guest speaker!)
HRC SILENT AUCTION DETAILS
Every HRC Dinner also features a Silent Auction, which is a key part of the evening's fund raising efforts. Out of all 30 HRC Dinners held last year, Atlanta?s Silent Auction was the most successful, raising over $53,500. You can contribute to the success of this year?s event.
By contributing to the HRC Silent Auction, your organization
has an outlet to showcase its products and services to an
appreciative gay and lesbian audience.
Depending on the type of organization you work for, your
company's merchandise, travel, visual art, meals and services are
all excellent Silent Auction items. Even tickets that your
firm has to events such as an Evening at Chastain are coveted
items at the Silent Auction. Undoubtedly, those at the HRC
Dinner and Silent Auction will remember the message that your
business values their support.
If you are interested in donating to the HRC Silent Auction or if
you can pass along information on someone who may be interested,
please contact the ESC.
