OCE gift that KEEPS ON GIVING
Hey crew, it’s me again. I see you getting all cozy as you settle in for another holiday season….or perhaps travelling/vacationing to somewhere exotic. If you didn’t already know, OCE is constantly looking for ways to support your endeavors. And that’s exactly what’s been on my mind this holiday season – how to bring more meaningful opportunities to you. So in honor of the holiday, I want to share a little project that's been in the works for the past several weeks. Attached below are 600+ purpose driven organizations hand-picked and compiled by yours truly– categorized by area of impact. If you are thinking of making a move on your business/career/education – the founders of these organizations would be a great starting point to tap into as they are all highly acclaimed.
How to get them to respond to your email?Follow the steps below: Research their biz - Are they experiencing any challenges? Anything their competitor is doing better? Template for your outreach: Hi, I noticed that your company X is [insert challenge]. Here is a solution that may be helpful for you [insert template, competitor strategy, prototype etc]. In addition, I am a student/new grad from X School really interested in your industry. You’ve built an incredible foothold in [insert field], I was wondering if I can contribute to your cause by [insert skill offering] and learn directly from you. (This template also works for any founder/tech leader in the OCE community) I want to share something cool...This new year, OCE will be launching a free weekly newsletter sharing everything from investing/building biz to school application strategies. Being apart of the OG community means extra perks for you. If you are working on any project/side hustle, I'm happy to highlight and endorse your work by sharing it in the newsletter – subscribed by 2000+ youth + industry leaders. As always, I’d love to hear from you. Feel free to reply to this email and I'll get back to you. :) Cheers to another impactful new year! Lena |

It’s that time of year again—goal-setting season. But honestly, I’ve never found it to be all that effective in helping me make decisions or take action.
