Welcome, and thank you for your interest in participating in our event. The goal in sponsoring this event is to bring awareness to the issues of bullying and the consequences that come with bullying.

We were amazed to find out that on a daily basis 160,000 children beg their parents not to send them to school because of bullying. That translates into over 28 million "lost" instructional days per year.

Something has to be done. The attitude that it is a "rite of passage" must be abandoned. Many schools around the country don't have the extra resources necessary to fully implement an ongoing anti-bullying program and we hope to help change that if even in just a small way.

YOURS TO KEEP

Please be assured that 100% of the proceeds we are raising will be used for anti-bullying awareness programs across the country and the money raised by the individual schools will stay with those schools.

We are a small foundation with big dreams. The spearhead of this project, Tom Wild, is available to help you with any marketing efforts necessary to make your participation and fund raising efforts as successful as possible.

Tom can be reached via e-mail at cogentfinancial@yahoo.com or by calling him directly at (937) 434-9300 x 32.

Please download a copy of the marketing kit (listed right), in order to get started. The kit includes order forms, sponsor forms, and important ordering deadlines.

Again, we thank you for your interest and participation in helping to put an end to the growing bullying epidemic in our society.
