It is amazing how many people will send their very hard earned money across the world to Nigeria or to Boca Rattan, Florida on the promise of a telephone acquaintance to make them much richer.

Raising "Advantaged" Kids - (An everyday, ordinary mother and her guide to teaching)

A model project seeks to spread its success

(NC)-Most Canadians know Lynn Johnston as an award-winning cartoonist of the popular comic strip For Better or For Worse. But to her neighbours in North Bay, Ontario, she is the guardian angel of a locally based youth drop-in centre program called CONNECTIONS.

After witnessing first-hand the profound changes that many young people in the program were experiencing, Johnston took the project under her wing in 1997, committing $600,000 of her own money over a ten year period. "The thing that really made me dedicate this amount of time, effort and money to the group was something that occurred when I attended one of the graduations," recalls Johnston.
