Choose To Not Be Poor

TEENS ARE MAKING ADULT DECISIONS WITHOUT ADULT FACTS

Our First Billboard Near Central High School In Phoenix, AZ

PRIMARY GOAL

This campaign exists so —YOU— civic leaders and businesses can take

charge, start, and repeat at your own high school. We envision communities where fewer teens become poor as adults because they have the facts and support.

BACKED BY LEADING RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS

Let’s be clear:

The truth has been proven for decades. The “success sequence” works.
Brookings, American Enterprise Institute, and Institute For Family Studies all confirm it: Teens who follow the “success sequence” almost never end up poor—97% avoid it entirely.(Click to see published Success Sequence literature.)
But no one ever showed teens these facts.
That ends here. We’re not waiting. We’re putting buried data on billboards—right where teens will see it.

Imagine this:
A fire alarm is invented—guaranteed by top experts to save nearly every life in a burning building.

But not a single building has installed it.
Our mission is to sound the alarm for the first time—so lives are saved before disaster ever starts.
You can be the reason a whole community gets this protection.
The science is settled. The only missing piece is the person who funds the very first alarm.

ACT NOW — TAKE OWNERSHIP — ADOPT — REPEAT

YOU DON’T NEED US. YOU CAN DO IT YOURSELF.

• Choose a high school.
• Sponsor a local billboard campaign for four weeks—every year.
• Renew the message; build a tradition.

Coordinate directly with a local billboard company—or, if you need a template or initial guidance, our nonprofit will help you launch. After that, ongoing support and visibility depend on civic adoption.

Get going now...it is so easy to do.

But...if you're not ready yet...

Donate to help us launch starter billboards near high schools nationwide, so the primary goal—community adoption and repeated campaigns—can spread and benefit more communities.

Spark hope. Shape futures. Make the message impossible to ignore.
