We do not have current strategies. We've tried many things in the past but they've never really succeeded. I'll not speculate on why, it's a complex issue.
What I will say (with my Presidents hat firmly on), is that if folks come up with a strategy that is in line with our charitable mission then please don't hesitate to ask for any support you need.
