CHANGING BUFFALO WITH A GOLDEN TICKET

4/23/2014

0 Comments

 
Later today we will begin distributing Golden Tickets. This is what you will find on our first Golden Ticket:


A MENTOR FORCE
GOLDEN TICKET

IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU! (Repeat this to everyone you meet!)
WE HOPE THE OWNER OF THIS GOLDEN TICKET,
IS FILLED WITH HEART SMILES!



PRESENT THIS TICKET AT HOLY CROSS, MARYLAND & NIAGARA, FROM 6-8pm ON THE TWENTY-EIGHTH DAY OF MAY, 2014
(If you don't have a ticket in your hand, just imagine that you do and we will too!) DO NOT BE LATE. THERE WILL BE FOOD & SMILES.

YOU WILL EARN HOW MENTORING RAISES GRADES, REDUCES SUSPENSIONS & MINIMIZES BEHAVIORAL PROBLEMS.

THIS EVENT WILL HIGHLIGHT UNFAILING OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO BE MENTORED,
FOR FOLKS TO BECOME MENTORS AND FOR MENTORING ORGANIZATIONS TO SERVE THE COMMUNITY..

In your wildest dreams you could not imagine the marvellous SURPRISES that await those who take control of their destiny. "SUCCESS IS A SEED INSIDE YOU, ALREADY PLANTED AND WAITING TO GROW."

This is a story that will be the back of the ticket:

Once upon a minute in a near away land there lived many children. They went to city schools where they found many good teachers. Sadly the teachers were forced to feed the children a fairly steady diet of tests. The children's poor hearts were burdened with the weights of life in their neighborhoods. The sidewalks had cracks that many children fell through. They named the cracks poverty, segregation and violence. Then one day some mentors appeared, they became teammates with teachers and parents. They helped the children learn how to climb the mountains of life. They told the children: "When life is hard; make diamonds. When life is a struggle; become a butterfly. When life is irritating; become a pearl! Whatsoever mountain you climb, climb it with all your might."

The children, their schools and a city were changed in the blink of an eye.
