This fund is now in the business of distributing funds to worthy students in
Stockton Unified School District. I believe in building tomorrows future today. I
am satistied with the efforts of those who have done their part and would like
to thank everyone who has made this effort a success.
These funds will help students at Franklin, Edison, Chavez and Stagg High School.
This $450 award will go to a senior, at each site who wins the contest. This contest will be
sponsored by Stockton Unified School District and Kelesha Martin.
I have noticed that After-School Programs generally organize Talent Shows anyway.
So this school year each of these schools has an opportunity to organize a Talent
Show and I will provide the judges for those shows. We need to be sure that we
don't schedule the Talent Show around or during the standardized testing window.
I will provide the judges based on musicians and professionals I know.
If you live in the area and feel qualified to be a judge let me know of your interest,
so we get the funds distributed to deserving students while I am still an active
artist.
(At some point in the next few years I will switch from a website to another model
of advertising if funds still exist, unless Robert and I start gigging regularly).
