"Take Stock in Youth" Campaign
As an individual investor, when you give $25 per month (pledging for a year), or $300 per year, you are enabling one more student to participate in Teach One to Lead One® (T1L1). As our way of thanking you for joining our "Take Stock in Youth" Campaign, we will send you:

• A personalized "Stock" Certificate, suitable for framing, that indicates your pledge or gift.
• Helpful information about T1L1 and your investment in youth.

Classroom

Would you take on the challenge of sponsoring an entire T1L1 classroom? For $4,500, you are influencing many families by bringing T1L1 to about 30 kids for a semester--often in places that are new to the T1L1 philosophy. Take on the challenge yourself, or talk to your church, club or civic organization to become a life-changing Classroom Sponsor! And in the meantime, let us know of your intentions so we can prepare any materials you may need to share the vision of T1L1 with your group, and so we can acknowledge your gift in a special way. Click here, or just call 1-877-529-7711, extension 24, for details.

Expansion

At CLI, our work never stops! We are aggressively working with public school systems to expand our exciting leadership and character development philosophy to new areas. We also go to juvenile courts and work with kids who have already made the wrong choices. We hold seminars for teens who need to be given a vision for their lives. And we train the adults who work with young people. Because we are growing at an astounding rate, we need your encouragement and support more than ever. We invite you to partner with us and make a positive difference, one kid at a time!
