One of
SillyCo’s ultimate goals and objectives would be to foster
celebrity endorsements. Celebrity guests would be welcome to
take an active position on the Board of Directors and/or as an
Ambassador role, depending their level of support. Celebrities
who are on the Board
of Directors would not be paid for their role and would
lend their popularity to the cause; they would have input on
the overall organizational direction and would be willing to
attend promotional launch events. Celebrities who have shown
support in the past for children’s causes include Jim Carrey,
Mike Myers, Lucy Lawless, Christie Brinkley, Oprah, Ellen,
Jamie Lee Curtis and a multitude of others. Whether SillyCo
fosters celebrity endorsements or not would in no way hinder
the ability of the company to conduct business as
usual.
