Fund Raising Mode

I'm in serious fund raising mode right now. The program slows down a bit while we regenerate funds. When you do good work it demands to be sustained. Sustenance comes from the altruistic giving of philanthropists and the conscientious solicitations of nonprofit development personnel. Well, besides helping to conduct our Hip Hop: Art, Science and Business course, my other very vital responsibility is to raise funds. I do so proudly and unflinchingly. Because I know that we are fulfilling a worthwhile purpose; we are introducing children to their true selves. We are mining the vast creativity of the mind of the child. This is the important work that is to be done in all communities where children are at risk. Education is key, but knowledge of self is what allows that key to unlock the treasures of life.

And that is what I explain to prospective donors. We are teaching children to have pride in accomplishment. They create finished works of music. Tangible accomplishment.
