Hello All!

 

Today I want to tell you about Men Make A Difference Day!

 

What is Men Make A Difference Day?

 

An initiative to increase the involvement of fathers and significant male role models in the academic lives of children.

 

DADS and significant male role models in the lives of their children and students are asked to pledge to remain engaged in the academic lives of students. DADS pledge to:

• Attend a school board meeting
• Assist my child with homework assignments
• Review and understand requirements for High School graduation
• Review and understand the role and expectations of an incoming 9th grader
• Participate in at least one Parent Teacher Conference

 

The concept of Men Make A Difference Day began three years ago in Prince George’s County, Maryland when Michael A. Robinson called on fathers to escort their children to school. This remarkable one day event resulted in over 10,000 dads and significant male role models engaging their children’s schools.

 

Create a Men Make A Difference Day (MMDD): 10.10.11 (October 10, 2011) Organizing Committee in your city, town or village and plan to meet at least once a week until the day of MMDD.

 

Partner with a school, faith-based organization or community organization that will serve as sponsor and fiscal agent for your initiative.

 

Ask the principal to send a notice to families to invite men, participate on 10.10.11
(October 10, 2011) Men Make A Difference Day (MMDD).
• Ask the school administrator to invite men into a parents’ room or auditorium for a short program while their children are in class (and include light refreshments like coffee, juice, and cookies with this program).

 

Check it out!

 

I am excited about the level of enthusiasm I am hearing from people all over regarding Men Make A Difference Day on 10.10.11. This is a national movement on a national day.

 

We are asking fathers, grandfathers, uncles, brothers, sons, nephews, and all significant male role models in the lives of children to participate.

To visit a school, meet teachers, staff, and other school personnel.

We ask that you volunteer at least 7 hours of your time to the school.

 Hello All!

 

Big things are happening,not only for me,but for Straightup Hookups!

 

I take my community involvement very seriously,but it isn't something that I started recently,it's been what I've done all my life.

I never saw it like that,but recent events have brought it to the forefront.

 

I'll post photos of an event where I'm being inducted in to a Hall of Honor!

 

Yes,me!

 

I was totally surprised when I received the news and request for bio,photos and my views of this organization and how it has grown and the effects.

Then a  call for the correct spelling on award for me.

 

Just when you think your work is in vain,or you're starting to question your worth.  God does things like this!

 

I'm truly blessed!

 

The event will take place August 11,2011 in St.Louis Mo @

 

Herbert Hoover Boys & Girls Club

 

(This event is invite only)

Yes,I have a business it ha many facets to it. Straightup Hookps is a lifestyle brand of positivity and growth.

We're heavily committed to our communities and we assist where ever we can.

We donate and volunteer in many avenues,such as donating sports teams,homeles shelter and the like.

We've recently partneredwith a homeless shelter to provide monthly birthday parties.

It was brought to our attention that anywhere from 20-30 young children are constantly in this shelter and often birthdays are neglected because of circumstance.

So we are providing party gifts,toys,presents,games and prizes for these children.

 

It's small and not really alot,but to children it's the difference between a Happy Birthday and just a birthday.

 

To get the word out,we do good deeds.Word of mouth is a wonderful thing,we a blog and a couple of websites that explain exactly what we're about.

 

Thanks for asking and joining!
