I'm not sure about using the diversity email, because it might put people under pressure to offer commitments in front of the existing donors? I think Jeff might have suggested either Max or Alan as the best contacts, or perhaps we could ask them to contact you and I as co-chairs of this CG? That would work, indeed. Thanks, Léonie.
