Fundraising Green meets New Roads School

How lucky were we to get a meeting with Paul Cummins? Very lucky! Paul is the Founder and Executive Director of New Visions Foundation. They have helped to start many schools in LA to help underserved students. From Crossroads to New Roads, Paul has left his philanthropic mark on thousands of students.

Paul is a sweet man and is always looking for ways to improve the quality of education for the students at his schools. Paul saw our Green coupon book as a vehicle to motivate students to not only raise money for school programs, but to teach them the consumer habits they will need to live healthy and active lives. Paul was very impressed that our fundraiser also educates. A novel concept that Paul had never seen in a fundraiser before.

We look forward to the opportunity to help schools like New Roads raise money, while raising environmental awareness. We know that students will enjoy promoting a fundraiser that is Green. We know that supporters will feel good about purchasing a product that inspires a Green, Healthy and Active lifestyle.

Thanks Paul!

Check out Paul's book on Amazon: "Two Americas, Two Educations: Funding Quality Schools for All Students" . We love it! This is what Fundraising Green and myGreenSpark Redemption Book is all about.
