We received such a wonderful surprise in the mail today.
A donation came in from the Bootleg Theater in Los Angeles, CA, who hosts a writing competition that donates a portion of the prize money to a charity of the winner’s choosing.
We would like to extend our sincerest thanks to Kathy Schenkelberg for selecting us to be the recipient of this award. Congratulations Kathy for your win in the competition, and again for making us your charity of choice!

The Power of Denial
Last month we discovered that Katsura Kan is conducting a student workshop in NYC. Upon hearing this news, we immediately sent the theatre that is hosting the workshop information and evidence about Kan's past manipulation and exploitation of his students. Their response was to threaten our organization with a lawsuit for libel, defamation, and harassment, opting to protect this evil sociopath rather than side with the facts and evidence to protect susceptible students from potential harm.
We also contacted the City of New York's Department of Cultural Affairs and the Department of Education to inform them of Katsura's workshop, both of whom were open to receiving and reviewing our information, and we look forward to hearing back from them.
This is what we are dealing with so often, in one simple word: denial; a denial which is causing so much needless suffering and damage to people's lives.
If they want to sue our organization that is of course their prerogative, but we are approved to bring awareness and to reveal the facts so that no other kids will be hurt by this predator and those like him. Moreover, we will continue to do so for as long as it takes to stop these wicked monsters from having their way.

Word of Faith Fellowship update... Word of Faith Fellowship update:
The WOFF church has lost some important funding from Brevard Jewish Community and Friends, as stated in an open letter to them,
“We have recently learned that several leaders within the Word of Faith church have been indicted on some very serious and very disturbing charges,” the letter said. “While we believe that everyone is innocent until proven guilty, we have also learned that there is a history of similar accusations involving this church. The abuse and persecution of anyone based on race, sexual orientation or religion is not acceptable to us.”
