Begin forwarded message: From: William Spear < Subject: For Jeffrey Date: May 22, 2014 11:00:51 AM EDT To: Jeffrey Epstein < Jeffrey, Last week, one of our supporters (now with his own fund, Bronson Point, and previously "Senior Portfolio Manager" at S.A.C.) hosted a reception for us at his home in Fairfield. 30+ people attended with a goal of raising funds to underwrite a new staff position. In attendance were a number of private equity, hedge fund executives and VC investors including some you may know. SAC could not attend though he asked for additional materials about our work. Over the weeks ahead, we'll see how successful followup outreach to him and others in this group might be. Two weeks ago, I spoke at the UMass Disaster Response Conference to an exceptional group of delegates from global disaster relief organizations — most of whom we've worked side-by-side with over the past decade. They all await our training which we are currently offering. Our reputation is solid and we are highly regarded in this field. We have now engaged three PhDs (one a neuroscientist) with whom we are devising a research methodology to authenticate our protocols which we believe can mitigate and prevent PTSD in children following natural disasters. We must hire two more staff members for which we need funding as well as underwriting the actual cost of research at either Johns Hopkins or another university graduate department. Though we are behind in our fundraising efforts to date, I remain hopeful that you and your foundation will consider my request for support. I look forward to a phone call or visit when possible — I am in my office all day today and tomorrow and will be in NYC next Tuesday and Wednesday for Josh's 30th birthday. Warm regards, Bill "If I were no
