… is what a young soldier told his mom shortly before he was killed in Iraq… We want to express our profound gratitude to all veterans who have ever served in our Armed Forces; Including those who have given their lives for our Freedom. On behalf of these brave men and women, we welcome you to Brave-Aid & Operation Warrior Support.
Three Reasons We Are Here: 3. To bring awareness to our nation regarding the needs of our veterans; specifically our wounded and disabled veterans. 2.
To tell you about a program that may not remove the
wounds of war, but will provide financial assistance to all our veterans and to recognize them for what they have done and for who they are. 7.To ask for your support with your prayers or donations or both.

In This Briefing We Will Share 5 Things With You: • The staggering needs of our veterans, especially our wounded and disabled veterans. • Our mission objective. • Our program. • Our organization. • How you can help veterans and at the same time start your own…
Home Based Fund Raising Business

The Needs of Our Wounded or Disabled Veterans • There is a lack of funding for adequate medical care. •The current generation of wounded soldiers are at significant risk for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Catastrophic head and spinal injuries are more pervasive than in previous wars. Many will carry visible scars of war on their bodies for life, but very often some of the most devastating conditions cannot be seen. •The suicide rate has reached epidemic proportion among our returning veterans.
5
The Needs of Our Returning Veterans
25 %
• The 25% unemployment rate for returning veterans is the highest of any group in the nation. This is an absolute travesty. Coming home, many veterans anticipate going back to their old jobs only to find out that not only the job is gone, but so is the company they worked for!
• Homelessness is rampant. 6
Brave-Aid Inc. and Operation Warrior Support’s combined objectives are to organize an army of donors who will generate an ongoing source of funding and income for wounded and disabled members of our Armed Forces and their families who have sacrificed so much in defense of our nation and our freedom. 7
•Making things worse, many disabled veterans often have to fight through a maze of governmental regulations to obtain benefits they so justly deserve. •On the home front once the parades are over and the accolades die down, the reality of life as a disabled veteran sinks in. Most wounded veterans are forgotten within a few years only to be briefly remembered on Memorial Day, Independence Day and Veterans Day. •We are here to keep the memory of these valiant men and women in the forefront. Our goal at Brave-Aid and OWSI is to honor and provide financial assistance to all veterans, past and present and to become a beacon of hope for wounded and 8 disabled warriors.
We are here to help: If you are discouraged by all of the news about the failing national economy, the declining stock market, increased taxes, sky-high unemployment, and so on…we have great news for you! You will love what we are about to tell you. You can partner with Brave-Aid by starting your own OWSI’s Home Based Fund Raising Business and help to provide funding for our wounded and disabled veterans; you will be helping families of veterans who have given their lives for our freedom and helping our returning veterans with the three things they want most when they return home; •…a way to earn an income extra income so can enjoy life with their families
2) …a home of their own
3) …have they

There is more good news. •An OWSI’s Home Based Fund Raising Business will enable you to raise money for our wounded and disabled veterans and help families of warriors killed in action. •Additionally, anyone who participates in an OWSI’s Home Based Fund Raising Business is able to earn a substantial income thru the…

“Earning While Giving Program”
•Our entire program is centered on a non-contractual $20.00 tax deductible monthly donation to Brave-Aid. •As you are about to see, this program is a very simple, yet is an extremely powerful and efficient way to raise money. •Our goal is to build a large organization of repeat $20.00 monthly donors dedicated at enrolling additional donors thereby funding the on-going and increasing needs of our wounded veterans.

We considered virtually every option known to bring awareness to our cause,
but we faced three difficult dilemmas; 3. How could we start and get people to donate to a program at a time when donations for charitable organizations were at an all time low? 2. How could we quickly reach and bring awareness to a multitude of people on a national level, without spending millions of dollars in advertising? 3. If we had the money, would spending millions in advertising guarantee the success of our program? An awareness of a program to raise funds for a worthy cause doesn’t guarantee the success of the program. 13
The answer was obvious, no amount of advertising could guarantee that even one donor would join and pledge to donate on a monthly basis. Since we didn’t have the millions of dollars to spend, we were forced to think outside the box. We realized that for our message to reach the masses quickly and encourage them to donate, we had to develop an innovative and effective program that would reward those who would spread the news. We were aware that due to the emotional nature of our cause, many people would gladly tell others without expecting any compensations. But we also understood that providing people a Home Based Business opportunity to earn money by helping our veterans, this would be the best way to achieve and secure continual growth for the program. 14
• OWSI’s Home Based Fund Raising Business concept is the lifeblood of Brave-Aid’s Wounded Veterans Assistance Fund. • Continually increasing the Donor base means continually increasing donations for our Warriors to meet our ever increasing demands of our veterans. MORE DONORS = MORE DONATIONS • This program gives anyone, regardless of the color of their skin, background, education, or religious beliefs, the ability to help achieve Brave-Aid’s objective while earning an income for their own families. • By building your own organization of Fund Raising Donors, you can help raise over $40,000 a month for our wounded and disabled Veterans and you can earn over $6,200 a month for your family. You 15 may choose to build up to five of these organizations.
PROGRAM: $20.00 Tax Deductible Monthly Donation will be Used Primarily to Fund Two Veterans Groups: Group 1 Group 2 Our wounded & disabled veterans

Let’s become familiar with a few important terms: • Fund Raising Donor • Donor Member • Enroller • Global Donor Formation • Personal Donor Formation, 4x 6 Matrix • Time Leveraging • Earning While Giving
Fund Raising Donor (FRD): •A FRD is an individual who pledges a $20.00 monthly donation. Donor may terminate the donor commitment at anytime or may wish to suspend the donation for a period of time without losing the position they are assigned, however an FRD’s income will be forfeited during that time. • Have free access to a personal OWSI website that will allow the member to reach someone across the street, across the nation or across the globe.
Donor Member (DM): •A Donor Member is a person who joins OWSI but is not committing to the $20.00 monthly pledge and may donate whatever they want. A Donor Member may not participate in the income program. Their donations amount do not count towards the Earning While Giving program. •DMs may convert to Fund Raising Donor status at anytime by pledging $20.00 monthly donations •DMs are granted the use of a personal OWSI website for 90 days

Global Donor Organization: The Global Donor Organization represents the entire group of Donor Members and Fund Raising Donors and identifies the specific personal position each member holds within the organization.

Economically speaking people can be separated into 4 groups Group 1. People with lots of money and little time: Group 2. People with lots of time and little money: Group 3. People with no time and no money:
$ T

Doctors, attorneys, businessmen.

Unemployed, retirees.

The largest group….more month at the end of the money!
People in these first 3 groups all have something in common, they all earn income by trading their time for someone else’s money. They are just broke at different levels! The good news is, there is a 4th group… This group has learned to Group 4. People with time and money: leverage their time giving

The question is, which of these group are you in? Most importantly, which group would you like to be in and do you have a way 21 to get there? If you don’t, pay close attention to what we are about to show you…
Time Leveraging
The big question in your mind right now may be how am I going to find 5,460 people for my organization?
There are two possible answers to that question:
1: Work the hard way by enrolling 5,460 FRDs yourself, or… 2: Work smart by leveraging your time!
Here is the Magic of Time Leveraging: Let’s say you decide to work your business 5 hours a week and for the purpose of this example, so will everyone else.
YOUR PRODUCTIVITY You = 5 Hrs 5 Hours Using your 5 Hrs, you enroll 4 people who each work 5 Hrs = 20 + 5 = 25 Hours Using their 20 Hrs, they enroll 16 people who each work 5 Hrs = 80 + 25 = 105 Hours Using their 80 Hrs, they enroll 64 people who each work 5 Hrs = 320 + 105 = 425 Hours …you get the point? Although you are still only working 5 hours every week, you now have
“Earning While Giving” program… We are going to show you how you can LEVERAGE a simple $20.00 tax deductible monthly donation into a $40,940.00 source of funding for our Wounded and Disabled Veterans while creating a potential monthly income of up to $6,292.00 or more, for your family.
$20.00 = $40,950 = $6,292
But first we need to show you our income disclaimer: The earnings examples set forth are hypothetical examples that are intended to explain the components and operation of OWSI’s “Earning While Giving” program. These examples are not guarantees of income if any, that a Fund Raising Donor can or will earn through their participation in the “Earning While Giving” program nor should they be interpreted as a guarantee or promise of earnings potential.
Here is an important factor to keep in mind as we discuss our “Earning While Giving” program. The “YOU” we have been referring to and will continue to refer to in the following slides may certainly represent you, but you need to understand that the “YOU” can also be someone you have adopted such as the widow of a warrior killed in action or Corporal Jones still serving in Iraq or 23 Sergeant Williams who just returned home and can’t find a job.

QUESTION: How long will it take to fill out all positions? ANSWER:
There is no time limit, but since the need of our veterans is so urgent, we should all desire to fill out our Personal Formations as quickly as possible. Theoretically, it could be done in as little as six weeks! Make a commitment to enroll your 4 members in your first week and help them enroll their 4 members in their first week or your week two. If this process is repeated the same way through your six rows, you will potentially fill out your
GLOBAL INCENTIVE POOL
Once a personal formation has been qualified by enrolling 4 FRDs, this pool will create an incentive to continue to enroll new donors… thereby increasing the revenue to the wounded & disabled veterans by earning shares of the monthly
From every donation made, $0.75 will be deposited in this pool and divided by the total number of shares earned in the pool arriving at a share value. The share value will be multiplied by the number of shares your have earned.

Closing Comments For those who wish to raise even more money for our veterans and would like greater earning potential, should consider pledging additional monthly donations in increment of $20.00 and receive a new Personal Member Formation for each additional donation and potentially earn $6,292.00 for each Formation that you help organize. Monthly donations of $100.00 create five positions and would maximize the “Earning While Giving” program. For some, this could be a five year plan; in other words, you maximize each position by enrolling 60 Fund Raising Donors every year for five years and if at anytime you feel you are earning too much money, consider giving money back by Adopting a Veteran and paying for their donation until they become self sufficient. Help By the way, these “Adoptees” would count as personal enrollees for you, so other Charitable Organizations: you needed funds for schools, churches, etc., by OWSI could also be used to help generate much can see that it would not be very difficult to enroll 5 new donors every month or 60 FRD’s in a year. simply having the entity assume a Fund Raising Donor position and have the members of that organization become Fund Raising Donors themselves. While their main objective may be to raise money Individually we can each makefor a their difference, corporately we can be respective organizations, our wounded veterans would benefit from their efforts as well. 26 the difference.
