Calgary, Canada, June 7, 2009 – A Calgary group inspired by the social commerce organization Humanity Unites Brilliance (HUB) set out to inspire local residents for the second time this year. The event, Igniting Your Brilliance was well attended and generous attendees even helped out a local mom and her 3 kids who have had some very difficult times.

The theme was one of transformation and as MC Dwayne Klassen pointed out the world is breaking down and the time for excuses are over.

Karen Klassen founder of Imagine Seminars & Consulting Inc and an International Life & Relationship Coach, Certified Corporate Trainer and Inspirational Speaker lead of the day with an amazing piece called 7 Steps on How to Attain Emotional Freedom. Other amazing speakers included Katharina Knodel, a personal trainer and speaker who teaches wellness through her company, Personal Evolution and Chad Lefevre whose new social organization, Against The Grain, garnered tremendous interest.

Representing Humanity Unites Brilliance, Allan Marston spoke about the transformation that humanity is going through and likened it to the metamorphosis of a caterpillar to a butterfly. Quoting the human potential guru Barbara Marx Hubbard, Mr Marston said, “Now in the 21^st century, millions of people are awakening in every field, culture, and ethnic group. The Imaginal disks are linking up, are becoming Imaginal cells, and are beginning to proliferate throughout the social body.

Each person who says “I know I can be more,” “I can do more,” The world does not have to be this way” is an Imaginal cell in the emerging culture of humanity. The social immune system is beginning to surrender as the new consciousness arises everywhere.”

Mr Marston who coined the title he uses for himself, Philanthro-Capitalist, also spoke about what that term means. “A Philanthro-Capitalist is a business person who is engaged in giving while creating a profit which in turn allows for more giving or philanthropy while creating even more profit. With this model there is ascending growth so that more and more people are impacted.”

HUB is making a difference from Alberta already. Local citizens are impacting thousands in Africa and in their own cities every single month. Yet there is much work to be done as Allan Marston is quick to point out. “35,000 children under the age of 5 years old die every single day from starvation and water-borne diseases. These are two things that we can do something about. We don’t need to spend years on R & D to find a cure like for Cancer or AIDS. This generation must act now!”

Humanity Unites Brilliance will hold another Igniting Your Brilliance in Lethbridge, Alberta on Saturday 13^th June 2009 from 10 AM to 4.30 PM at the Loyal Order of Moose Hall 1405 – 5^th Ave North, Lethbridge. Law of attraction expert Elisabeth Fayt will be the keynote speaker.

“The kind of people that are attracted to these seminars that we put on are people who have been asking ‘Why is the world in the chaos that it is and what can I do about it,” said Allan Marston who will also speak at the event in Lethbridge.

CALGARY, Dec. 26, 2008 – It seems like everybody is talking about social business these days – these are businesses which aim to be financially sustainable, and profitable, in its pursuit of a social, ethical or environmental goal.

They offer a new hope for a caring, sharing society where the focus is equally balanced on business and philanthropy. One such group is Humanity Unites Brilliance that got its start in Los Angeles in early 2008. Today, a part of the group based in Calgary, Canada came together to serve and feed almost 1,000 Homeless people for Christmas.

The Canadian based group inspired Calgary Business and their employees to contribute financially and in kind. The group delivered various necessities like socks, cold weather clothing, Cough lozenges as well as food like Turkeys. On the 24^th alone the group delivered 240 lbs of potatoes.

What is most noticeable about this group is the joy with which they serve. The group also served at this same centre, The Calgary Drop In and Rehab Centre, for Canadian Thanksgiving feeding over 1,200 people then. This time almost half the volunteers were non-HUB members who were inspired by a mass fax and email campaign.

“We knew that that there were people in Calgary who cared but didn’t know how to participate,” said Allan Marston one of the leaders of Team Destiny in Calgary, “so we figured if we reached them they would respond and that is what happened.”

Instead of the usual 25 volunteers that are needed for such an event the group had more than 50 volunteers.

Calgary businesses also chipped in to help even though they face some uncertain times. Technology companies like Longview Systems donated enough money to buy turkeys to feed over 500 people and PC Corp donated 200 lbs of potatoes. A popular local spa, R&R Wellness also donated gifts and food to feed almost 250 homeless people.

“We set out to inspire Calgarians and we did. And we hope that by getting the word out to others that it will inspire leaders in small communities and big cities everywhere to inspire and lead their communities into action,” said Elisabeth Fayt owner of R&R Wellness Spas and a member of the Canadian faculty of Humanity Unites Brilliance.

HUB Team Destiny meets every week in Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg and has plans for weekly events in Vancouver and Toronto.
