How does one thank someone for what they have done?

Our family will never forget what The Future Is Now Foundation has done for our family and son.

Mr. Shultz, for you personally to take this situation, your time and energy to make our son realize just how important his education was to his future.

You were able to do what we his family, teachers and coaches could not do.

The most amazing thing is Mr. Shultz, everything you told him has come true. He was nominated for Homecoming King, he became a good student and his outlook on life is one with great vision.

You told him that today was the best day of his life and Mr. Shultz, everyday has been a GREAT DAY!

Kyle has graduated from High School and that day we were so proud of him and as he walked down the aisle, he had a smile on his face.

We are every bit as proud of you. I thank God everyday for The Future Is Now Foundation and most of all we thank him for giving you such wisdom and vision of our children.

You will always be in our prayers and we all Thank You so much for sharing your heart with our son and to help make him become a man someday and to be able to give as you have.

May God Bless you and your family and the works of your foundation.


From: ABC Phonetic Reading School, Inc
John Cahal, President

My staff and I personally want to thank you and the Future Is Now Foundation for your financial support and involvement in ABC's Student Scholarship program. ABC's program for children of financially challenged families has been a success.

As you know, in 1986 ABC set the standard for accountability in remedial reading instruction by guaranteeing our student's a minimum of a full grade level of reading improvement in forty hours or less. Today, ABC's average student will improve two or three grade levels. Once a student completes ABC's program they are empowered by their reading ability to achieve academic success in school. Once academic success is achieved, academic confidence and self esteem flourish. Thus ABC's graduate students have Hope for a better future, a future of unlimited possibilities.

Mr. Shultz, I know the students' you helped will never forget, nor will I, the hand up they received through your organization. I hope your example will take root in them, so when they become the men and women of tomorrow, they too will help those who need a hand up.

Thank you for all of your assistance in making the April 11, 2002 presentation a great success. You, Tom Manno, and Spanky Spangler did a great job in speaking from the heart and totally captured the attention of the student body. Although I originally expected 200 students, estimates of those in attendance fell between 350 and 500!

The feedback I have been receiving from students and teachers has all been glowing. Thank you again for this wonderful opportunity speaking to the students at Cactus Shadows High School. You and your colleagues are an inspiration to many.

I enjoyed getting to know each of you better during lunch. The food was great and so was the company. Thanks again for everything.

All of us commend both you and your foundation for you support, for the Future is Now!
