This article is all over the place. “Indebted ex-offenders: a volatile situation”. This article and my quote is appearing everywhere and I am glad a subject like this is being addressed. What is the answer you might ask? How about, lets try keeping people out of prison. Lets spend some money on programs like mine BEFORE people make choices that will land them in jail. The benefits to society are beyond comprehension. Just think about it.

Golf and Kids
August 29, 2010 – 2:29 pm
I am watching the Barclay’s golf tournament and thinking about our golf outing last week. What a true success. It was a success for all the reasons we do it. To show young people that there is more to life then drugs, crime, and having no future. The future is these kids and we showed them that older people in positions of power and prominence do care about them. That is what it was all about. What makes it really special is the mentors, volunteers and sponsors also get a lot out of it. Thanks to the mentors, volunteers and sponsors we can do a great event like this every year. I can predict with almost certainty that our fourth annual Reality Check Foundation golf outing will be even better then last weeks event. Please get involved.
