What We've Done So Far

During the last two years John Hall has made 100s of school presentations showing kids how using simple good manners will help them get along better with others.

Now we're ready to do a video version of the 'Power of Please' - and we're going to give it to just 100 schools to try out. 

What You Can Do

Please sponsor one of these pilot program schools. You may want to join with friends or a club or PTO to sponsor a school.

Every contribution no matter what the amount will help sponsor one of these schools.

How Do I Sponsor A School?

Sponsoring a school is easy. Just click the Donate button.

And remember, whatever the amount of your contribution, you will be helping to sponsor one of these schools!

What You Get Out of It

Here's the bottom line: when you help sponsor a pilot program school you will be helping to start a Manners Movement in America.  And that's a gift that really will last for geneartions to come.

Thank you in advance for your generosity – and for caring about our children.

Because Good Manners really are a Good Thing – for everybody.

What Else Do I Need To Know?

Q: How much does it cost to sponsor a pilot program school? 
A: It will cost us $500 per school to do the video pilot program. But ALL contributions no    
    matter what the amount will help sponsor one of these schools!

Q: What if I can only contribute $10 or $20 to the 'POP' pilot program?
A: It all adds ups! Whatever the amount of your contribution it will be helping get the 'POP'
    pilot program off the ground!

Q: Will I or my group receive recognition for sponsoring a school?
A: Absolutely!  Whether you request a particular school or we assign a school, it
    will be our great privilege to let each school know exactly who made it possible
    for them to be part of the 'POP' pilot program.

Q: Is there any way I can be involved with 'POP' in my community?
A: Yes!  The more attention 'POP' gets in a school, in a community, in the media,
    the more positive momentum the program will have.  Your enthusiasm will be
    much appreciated! 

Q: Do I get a tax deduction for sponsoring a school?
A: No.  Increasingly complex government regulations for charitable contributions
    have made this very difficult.  We feel the long term benefit that the 'Power of
    Please' will have for American children is a very good reward for sponsoring a school.

Where is POP Headed?

As the 'Power of Please' pilot program progresses, we will be seeking corporate partners to fund the development of a large scale version of 'POP' that will be made available to schools nationwide.  Your suggestions or connections will be extremely valuable as we look for just the right match.
