JVPNG Foundation · Christmas in July
Support the Mission
For fifteen years JVPNG members have shown up for each other — and for our neighbors. Right now we’re filling toy boxes across Houston for kids at Christmas. Tell us how you’d like to help and we’ll stay in touch. Every gift stays close to home.
This form just tells us you want to help — you send your gift yourself, in your own bank app. We never see your bank details.

Thank you — you’re in.

We’ve got your info and someone from JVPNG will follow up. If you’d like to send a gift right now, it’s one step in your own bank’s Zelle:

Open your bank app → Zelle → scan the code (or enter the address above) → enter the amount → send. It goes straight to the JVPNG Foundation.

JVPNG Membership Rules

Founder → Partner → Member → Visitor → Archived

Visitor

Entry level. Anyone who checks in for the first time. Remains a Visitor until the Founders vote them in — no matter how many meetings they attend.

Requirements:
  • Check in at a JVPNG meeting
Obligations:
  • Complete profile: company, phone, and email (all required fields)
  • Sit for a one-on-one / interview with each Founder
  • Purchase a JVPNG member badge (required before promotion vote)
  • Timed spotlight (shared time with other timed speakers)

Member

Full member. Granted by Founder vote after the Visitor has met every eligibility requirement AND won the Founders over in interviews.

Eligibility (checklist — does NOT promote you):
  • Attend at least 4 meetings (eligibility threshold — does NOT promote)
  • Profile 100% complete (company, phone, email)
  • Receive a check-off from EACH Founder individually
  • Purchase a JVPNG member badge
Promotion (how you actually become a Member):
  • All of the above eligibility requirements met
  • Formal vote by the Founders to promote — this is the moment the Visitor becomes a Member
  • Decision is based on Founder feeling from interviews and one-on-ones; eligibility alone does NOT earn promotion

Partner

Leadership level. All Member rights plus superpowers.

Requirements:
  • Invitation and consensus of existing Partners
Partner Superpowers:
  • No timer on spotlight — unlimited time
  • Always in the queue — no check-in required
  • Can run the Conductor and manage meeting flow
  • Priority placement — first in the spotlight queue

How Promotion Actually Works

Meeting the checklist makes a Visitor ELIGIBLE for review — it does NOT promote them. Promotion is a deliberate, manual decision made by the Founders based on their feeling from interviews and one-on-ones. "Eligible" and "promoted" are not the same thing.

Dormancy Rules

Miss 28 consecutive days and you're automatically archived. Partners are exempt.

If you come back, it's a full reset:
  • Status → Visitor
  • Meeting count → 1
  • One-on-one completions → reset
  • Badge ordered → reset
  • Email sequence → restarted
