==Mission Statement==
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"The group of people referred to collectively as 'the Survivors' find themselves possessed of power unseen in the annals of human history and, through that power, the responsibility to better not just themselves or their own nations, but the entire world.  The Hopewell Foundation exists to provide these people with the funding and access they need to make the best, most effective use of that power.  <br> &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;"For all of that power, though, the Survivors might find themselves at a disadvantage in the everyday world.  They may have lost their savings, their jobs, their families; they may find it difficult to get insurance or fair employment.  At the simplest level, there may be no one else who understands exactly what they're experiencing.  The Hopewell Foundation's other role is to pave the Survivors' way through the world, through legal advocacy, job placement and medical care and as an understanding shoulder to cry on."


==Business Model==
Like other [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Think-tank think-tanks] of its type, the Hopewell Foundation employs a number of scholars who do research and perform consultations for corporations, governments, militaries and other non-governmental organizations (NGOs).  The Hopewell Foundation charges a fee for its consulting work, and this fee is assessed on a sliding scale of financial need; those who are least able to pay for the Foundation's services are charged the least, while those with more readily available funds are charged more.  

The Foundation's consulting contracts also stipulate that should consultation with the Hopewell Foundation directly results in the development of a new technology (for example a new drug, metalic alloy or computer chip), the Foundation receives 35% ownership of that technology (and, thus, 35% of profits resulting from it) and a contract to buy the manufacturer's products at 55% of the best market price, after waiving its 35% profit share.  

There are some areas where multiple departments in the Foundation are expected to overlap.  Notably, this might occur between the Biotechnology Research department and the Advocacy and Support department's health care-related concerns, or between the office of Government Consultation and either science department.  In these situations, departments are expected to share information professionally and, after consultation with the Director of Programs, either work together or let one particular program handle the situation.

As an NGO, the Hopewell Foundation also has a strong development (i.e. fundraising) mandate and seeks out donations from corporations and private citizens, as well as applies for government (foreign and domestic) and private grants.


'''The Executive Director''' <br>
The ED is in charge of the large-scale operations of the Hopewell Foundation in two key action areas.  First, she directly oversees the Foundation's Operations staff.  This includes ensuring that the Foundation has the funding it needs to function through development, that its budgets are on-target, that the staff remains highly skilled and motivated, and that its program activities are in keeping with its mission statement.  Second, she is the key liason between the Foundation's office and the non-media world.  In this capacity she is answerable to the Foundation's Board of Directors, attends all Development-related functions, meets with potential high-powered donors and takes meetings with high-ranking members of government as-needed.

'''The Director of Programs''' <br>
The DoP is in charge of the day-to-day operations of the Foundation's program areas.  Internally, he coordinates activities between the individual programs for maximum efficiency, including loans of full-time and freelance staff, and ensures that each is operating according to a specific organization plan to accomplish defined short- and long-term goals, as determined in consulation with the Executive Director and the Board.  Also, he must work closely with the Counsel and Public Relations portions of the Foundation's Operations staff to ensure that the programs' activities are both legal and well-received.  Externally, he is the key liason with executives representing the Foundation's various clients, patrons and partners, ranging from other advocacy groups to government, in order to support the work of the various programs.
