FOR THE GOOD OF THE CHILDREN...

Dear Caring Friend,

Would you help me with my work with kids?  In the last 30 years I have had the privilege of speaking to children around the world. From Elementary aged children to High School aged children.

I am very humbled to tell you that folks feel that I have made a difference -- a significant difference in the schools and communities where I work.

I have even been invited in to speak to teens about preventing drugs, suicide, violence.  Last year a school called me after they had 10 students take their own life!

Lately hundreds of schools, aware of my personal story have invited me in to address so many issues. 

Unfortunately in the last four years the school funding has been cut again and again!  Most schools that really need my programming simply can not afford to bring me in to speak any more. I know it is not right if only the rich schools hire me to speak and save lives! 

I have always said this is my calling... my "cause"... not mearly a way to make a living!

However, although I am embarrassed to admit it I have considered changing my focus on other ways to make a living just because it has been so hard!

Some of my friends and colleagues and clients have urged me to find a "sugar daddy" that is to say a corporate sponsor. However the corporations who have shown the most interest are cigarette companies or alcohol companies and this seems to be a distressing conflict of interest! I don't want to sell out my values just to pay the bills.

However I did find a small solution and this is where I need your help.  

I have a new "branch" of my company that sells services and products. 

The great thing is it will cost you no more than what you pay currently and service and is with the companies that you know and trust!
