VISION LIFE WARRIORS IN TRAINING • E3 Dropout Solution and From Mists of Time have joined forces to develop a historical program that takes WWII American Heroes and transforms their experiences into character training for at-risk youth.
ENGAGING YOUTH • Engage – Youth re-engage in life by creating a vision for the future. • Boomerang, a 10-hour workshop communicates the message that what you put out in life comes back to you. • Students have to answer the question, what are you putting out?
EDUCATING YOUTH • By leveraging technology, students have the structure of a classroom but the freedom of learning at their own speed. • With online instructors, classroom teachers and tutors available to students, education is transformed into an individualized academic plan for each and every student.
EMPLOYING YOUTH • The Career Building Academy provides hands-on training in the construction industry. Students learn from the ground up how to build a home which includes electrical, plumbing, and carpentry training within this program. • Additional career pathways are in development and will be offered in the Fall of 2013.
FROM MISTS OF TIME • A non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that preserves eye-witness stories from people who have lived through historical events. • This vision provides a limited opportunity to teach the future generations of the sacrifices made by the heroes of the past.
BOMBER’S MOON • A Rocky Mountain PBS documentary featuring nine women who lived in Europe and Japan during WWII and the men who dropped the bombs. • These women give a first-hand account of what the sights and sounds were like living underneath the bombs that were dropped. • Viewers are drawn into the lives of these women that were girls living through the global conflict and the constant threat of death.
AWARD- WINNING PROGRAMMING • Telly Awards • Rocky Mountain PBS Broadcast • Cannes Film Festival • Denver International Film Festival • Memphis Film Festival • Edward R. Murrow Awards • Pikes Peak Ad Federation (ADDY Award for Southern Colorado) • NPR Broadcasts – featured on the “All Things Considered” Broadcast

CHARACTER TRAINING THROUGH LIVING HISTORY • This unprecedented character training program focuses on American heroes and their experiences is used as a cutting-edge teaching tool for future life warriors. • Character is an element of success that is rarely discussed in today’s classroom. By utilizing the heroes of our past and bringing character to life, youth can see first hand what it means to be committed to a mission, courage to continue to fight and the ability to follow through to the end .
FUNDING THIS PROJECT WHY INVEST? • Each episode costs $1,600 to produce. • Innovative programming which is critically needed for today’s youth. • Relaying the stories of the WWII warriors is never more urgent than NOW! This living history will impact the hearts and minds of the youth that are battling in today’s society.
