Corporate Money To Combat Violence At Orlando Schools
More corporations should follow the example being set by GMAC Finances and Chevy in the Chevy R.O.C.K. (Reaching Out to Communities and Kids) program. Grant money is being provided to several Orlando schools to provide funding for nonviolent initiatives.
Violence Not the Answer to Resolving Disputes at Orlando Schools
While students attending Orlando schools may see violence as a way to resolve disputes between people, the truth is that there is always a better way to than using your fists, a weapon, or intimidation to make your point. I applaud these two corporate sponsors to seeing a need for this type of program in Orlando schools and taking steps to respond to that need and make a difference. We need more corporations responding to community issues in a positive way like this, not only for Orlando schools, but in cities and towns nationwide.
