OBJECTIVE
Fund "start-up" costs to launch non-profit giving "full-ride" college scholarships to adult-learners
TERMS

If we reach at least $8,985 by May 5, 2010, then we will be able to begin sending adults to college on "full-ride" scholarships w/o the looming debt.

THE PITCH

Start-up costs do not have to stand in the way of helping hundreds of people pursue their educational goals, but often that is the reason why “great” ideas never get off of the paper they were written on.

By helping us furnish our “start-up” expenses, we will be able to fulfill our mission.

The need: attorney’s fees, 501 © (3) application fee, trademark, articles of incorporation, office rent downpayment, & marketing materials.

Our Mission: To furnish talented college-bound adult learners in financial need with “full ride” scholarships funded by nationwide, community contributions of one dollar each. We intend to decrease financial stress on families, thwart student loan debt, and encourage the art of philanthropy through the scholarship opportunity.

We invite individuals to join together to give the opportunity of an excellent and “debtless” education to aspiring adult students by donating just one dollar at a time.

If we have a terrible experience at a store, we call, text, tweet, and post of FB.

Agree or disagree?

If we have a great time, we tell whoever we speak to that day.

Agree or disagree?

If we hear about an opportunity, we tell those it applies to.

Agree or disagree?

(Well, you get the point)

It’s time to tell a friend about an opportunity that may not affect you or them. But chances are they know someone who can be helped by the efforts of this organization!

So, let’s just pay-it-forward until it hits someone in need!
