When threatened by a young person during the L.A. Riots nineteen years ago, Paula Phillips (above left, with TDFO book donor volunteers) vowed to spend her life letting kids know that they are special and deserving of following a "right road" in life. She quit her job, and began The Dream Fund Outreach (TDFO), a Ventura County, CA-based nonprofit, which will soon be re-named Right Road Kids as a part of its national expansion. For over eighteen years, she has developed an enriching, uplifting Standards-based curriculum that she brings to school classrooms and assemblies. The organization offers a variety of other programs as well, such as the Book Drive that Phillips revealed at Juan Soria Elementary School in Oxnard, CA today; link to the full story below...
