 F.Y.I.
-TELL EVERY ONE YOU KNOW!
Date line: 1/24/2008
Harvard University announced that from now on
undergraduate students from low-income families will pay no tuition. In
making the announcement, Harvard's president, Lawrence H. Summers said,
"When only 10 percent of the students in Elite higher education come
from families in lower in lower half of the income distribution, we are
not doing enough. We are not doing enough in bringing elite higher
education to the lower half of the income distribution".
If you know of a family earning less than $60,000.00 a year with an
honor student graduating from high school soon, Harvard University wants
to pay the tuition.

SPECIAL CHILDREN
LOVE A CIRCUS WITH
MANHATTAN COUNCIL 
Manhattan Council
were graciously
invited as
volunteers by The
Community of Mayors
to help out with one
of their many
sponsored events.
This event was
celebrated at
Madison Square
Garden hosted by
Ringling Brothers
and Barnum and
Bailey circus. They
had invited over 40
schools of mostly
handicapped children
from around the NYC
area to attend. Our
charge was to help
escort our special
guests to there
seats and offering
neon necklaces as
party gifts. There
was a little over
4000 tickets given
to the schools, but
more then 6000 had
attended which made
for nothing short of
a mad house. But in
true pioneer
fashion, we all made
the best of it and
had a great time.
Our pioneers who had
attended were
Sharron Brown and her
daughter, Tom
McKenna, Pam Grear,
Ron Spaulding,
Christina Pun and
life member Herman
Tucker. Special
thanks goes to
Sharron Brown for
informing us about
this event,
Thanks!!!
