REGISTER FOR PRE-RELEASE: WORTH

An intimate journey that seeks to uncover the answer:

What is the one thing we all need to have a better quality of life?

What should we focus on to bring us an unbridled sense of achievement and fulfillment – without material success? Should we chase a life that is grand and abundant, or humble and simple? Can we do both…

Worth: Purpose Beyond Ambition by Erik Kikuchi is more than a travelogue that answers these questions.

Erik began his journey when his “perfect” life crashed and burned after hitting a breaking point in his pursuit of success, which included the loss of his home, the sale of his business, and getting a divorce.

With no compass to guide him on where to go and repeatedly questioning his own value and happiness, he decided to pursue the answer to the question: What is the one thing that all children need to have a better life? To begin this, he left everything he had behind and headed to work and serve with abandoned and impoverish children in South America.

What he discovered is that the greatest poverty one can experience lies not in the absence of food, shelter and material things but within our own mind, hearts, and hands. And what all children (and all of us) most need is to truly understand and believe that we all have an unharnessed intrinsic worth, one that can never be seen or owned.

Join Erik as he takes you through a journey and intimate experience as he begins to unfold the worthiness, gifts, and purpose of those who are seemingly poor, abandoned, and labeled too unfit to contribute to society. This book is for the underdogs, the ones seeking answers in success, and those in search of hope and purpose, even when surrounded by despair.

“It’s not important what you do or what you have accomplished. It’s important to be in touch with what your heart hungers for. What fulfills you in your life, what drives you to experience more of the greatness you already have within you.”

CEO Gathers Worldwide Business Leaders to Solve the World’s Biggest Challenges

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Wealthy Business Leaders Will Join Forces and Finance Projects to Make a Difference

Ontario, Canada (January 20, 2020) – Erik Kikuchi, who is well known for his prior work as the President of Diva International Inc. (producer of The DivaCup), started an organization for CEOs and leaders with high net worth and ultra-high net worth to solve the world’s biggest challenges. It’s called POP962. POP stands for Presidents on Purpose. “There’s so much talk about corporate social responsibility. As leaders, we need to put action behind the talk and lead by example,” said Kikuchi. The 962 represents Bible verse Luke 9:62 which encouraged the business leader to continue and expand his efforts to make a difference around the globe.

From the Shelter to the C Suite
Kikuchi had a tumultuous childhood. After his parents divorced, he was often homeless. He slept in hotels, shelters and even public parks. He said, “Through these experiences I developed compassion, but to me that is so much more than just feeling bad for someone. I cultivated a true sense of compassion that drove me to take meaningful difference-making action.”  

In his early 20s, Kikuchi founded his first of three successful companies. He later became a well-respected speaker, CEO advisor and headed up Diva International. Throughout his corporate successes, he did charity work in South America. Now, he focuses all his time and effort on his charitable initiatives and he’s inviting other business leaders to help make a difference. “We can challenge the impossible if we do it together,” he emphasized.

How POP962 Works
Kikuchi is recruiting for two groups. First is ‘GROUP GLOBAL’ which consists of 18 business leaders from across the globe who command $10 million++ (USD) in net worth. The second is ‘GROUP AMERICAS’ which consists of 18 business leaders (from the Americas) whom command $5+ million (USD) in net worth.

The annual membership fee of $25,000 for either group and in addition, members and/or their corporations are to contribute at least $25,000 (for Group Americas) and $50,000 (for Group Global) towards their groups humanitarian projects. From there, each group will form its own charitable foundation which chooses its own projects and charitable activities.

Participants will tackle problems like poverty, access to clean water, refugee crises and eliminating slavery. “These groups will include some of the world’s greatest problem solvers. A collaboration featuring leaders from diverse backgrounds is sure to have a meaningful impact across a wide spectrum of social issues,” said Kikuchi.
