I’m hopeful this could work, but I don’t have 100% confirmation yet. What time would he perform?

Katie,
I connected you with Lupita’s manager Didi. Sounds like she’s interested, but may just want to talk
some details out further.
Best

Brad - Thanks for your help on this outreach. What is the best way to answer this? We would love to
do something with Lupita – having her participate via social & of course if she wanted to attend the event on March 9th in NYC – we would LOVE to have her. Not sure how to best answer each question but happy to put something more formal together if you think
that is right. Answers in blue below.
- What is the general gist of the data to be revealed on the 8th? I am sure this information was left out by
design in the pitch, but it would be useful to get a sense of it so that I can participate with a sense of authority.
The data is a collection of data from the past 20 years on the progress of women and girls. Collecting
data from sources like the UN, World Bank and many many more, we are looking at change over time. In 1995, Secretary Clinton was in Beijing and made a declarative statement that brought forth a UN Platform for Action and spurred decades of work saying “women
rights are human rights and human rights are women’s rights”. This March we celebrate the 20th anniversary of that time with the release of our data. The data covers over 190 countries and looks at the areas of health, communication, economic opportunities, security,
leadership and education. In the past 20 years we have seen tremendous progress – more laws are on the books to protect women and girls and more policies in place that ever before around the world. However, despite these gains we know there is more we need
to do as many rights are still elusive for women and girls around the world.
This March we will release this data that is a measure of how far we have come and
when we know how far we have come, we can work together to close the gaps. The data will be available in a report and also in an interactive data visualization.
I am happy to explain more and even share previews of the data if helpful as well to give more context.
What are the demographics of the influential people participating so far? I noticed in the
mock-ups that the women represented were all caucasian, and I would like to ascertain that the actual program is more diverse than the mock-up appears to be.
Apologies if the artwork and information shared seemed to lack diversity in it’s presentation. We have a wide range of people participating
in both our symbolic stunt to also joining our event in March 9th in NYC. No Ceilings has always been a global effort because we are looking at global gains and gaps for women and girls. As for a key target we are trying to specifically break through to younger
women, particularly millennials and hence why Lupita’s participation as icon for women around the world would be huge.
I know her schedule is tight but we would love her participation via social and if she could in anyway join our March 9th official launch
of the data in NYC with Secretary Clinton, Chelsea and Melinda Gates, we would be so honored to have her.
On women participating in our campaign and brands we do have a mix from Padma Lakshmi, Amy Poehler, Sienna Miller, to brands like Beats,
Under Armour and more. We are in conversations with important international voices such as Malala and President Sirleaf. So all to say in everything we are doing diversity is hugely important to us and something we value so it will most definitely be more
so then the mock ups showed. Apologies.
- Will there be any follow-up activity to the social media push to the site for people like me who participate?
Is there intention inform us of the outcome of our involvement and the program altogether?
We have several main objectives with our work:
-
We want as many people as possible to get educated and share the data with their friends. This is our biggest goal. The highest hope is that we can teach people about the progress
– because there is real good news and so we know progress is possible but there is more to do – and we can bring those stories to the front as well and so we all must work to close the gaps. -
We will have on our site ways for us to share small actions that people can take every day to support and help women and girls reach full participation. This can be everything from
knowing women only make up 7% of female directors but that going to support a female director on opening night can do something to help support women in film. -
Right after we release the data, we will follow-up with a policy plan that is aimed at taking the gaps we discovered through our research and then trying to drive forward solutions,
this will be the ongoing work for us here and to those we engage. Also happy to share more.
Brad, I attached the No Ceilings one pager as well in case this background is additionally helpful.
Lupita is also interested but had some questions first:
- What is the general gist of the data to be revealed on the 8th? I am sure this information was left out by
design in the pitch, but it would be useful to get a sense of it so that I can participate with a sense of authority.
- What are the demographics of the influential people participating so far? I noticed in the mock-ups that

Thank you! Please connect her or her team to me and I can take it from there.
Good news.
Blake Lively wants to help. Who from your end should I connect with her team? She is a spokesperson
for L’Oreal and Gucci. Gucci wouldn’t be able to do the ad print component, but L’Oreal might.
Sounds likely that she would participate in the other social media components.
Sorry I forgot, Lupita was a no as well.
Yes. Thanks Brad. Adding Katie who can give you am update too.

Capricia –
These all went out last week and we’re following up. Just to make sure we’re positioning this right,
the idea is to get the actresses to take part in any of the ways outlined by that overview you sent:
1)
Print Ads: Working with publications and companies to remove Famous Actresses and Spokewomen from ads for the launch and replacing the famous faces with the text
www.NotThere.com
The Foundation is working with the brands and advertisers, but would need the actresses’ approval on ads that they are in.
2)
Facebook: Change their profile photo to the default blank silhouette
3)
Twitter: Tweet 128 blank characters +
www.NotThere.com
4)
Instagram: Post a photo of a white wall with the caption
www.NotThere.com
5)
Video: Take part in a short video with other actresses to promote
NotThere.com and the need for gender equality.
Thank you so much Brad --- Below is more of their list that was just shared with me. Let me know what else you need.
Amy Poehler - was responsive to Chelsea but they have not heard from her for a few weeks.

Hi Capricia,
I’ll get Harvey on this right away. Taking Harvey off for the moment. Would you want to tape these
actresses for the video on the 9th or have them there in person on the 10th? Is there a synopsis of the data and the great work the foundations Women and Girls initiative has done that we could use in our pitch?
Also wanted to brainstorm and run some other names by you:
Anne Hathaway
Julianne Moore
Amy Adams
Jessica Chastain
Blake Lively
Naomi Watts
Emma Stone
Michelle Williams
Sarah Jessica Parker
Jessica Alba

Good Afternoon!
I am asking on behalf of the Clinton Foundation for some help. The Secretary and Chelsea are rolling out March 9 and 10th a huge effort regarding data they have collected about Women and Girls. On the 9th they have a video about the position of how girls are
non existent in so many areas today. Then, on the 10th they are rolling out a huge event with Melinda Gates at the Best Buy Theater the data they have collected about women' status in major issue areas like the economy, globally. Happy to get on the phone
with anyone to talk this thru.
Who they are hopeful for:
Kerry washington and
1. Jennifer Lawrence
2. Lupita
3. Maya Rudolph
4. Kristen Wiig
Any help to get the attention of these young women - whose voices speak to millennial would be so appreciated.
All best always
Capricia
