In-the-CommunityI Believe I Can Fly Event This event shall be a charity fundraiser for the mission statements of the Andrew J. Peterson foundation. They are a public charity 501 c3. This event shall be held at the Young Chefs' academy on Aug 23, 2008. Chefs from the Junior Chapter of the ACF Beehive State Chef's Association shall be working with the children on making a healthy and yummy lunch. The children will get to participate in making the lunch and then eating it. The fabulous Lindsey Taylor and Zumba teachers will then teach the children how to Zumba - the hottest dance exercise craze out there. The "I Believe I Can Fly" Program is for the children of our communities. The program consists of several elements to help our children gain positive self-esteem and the ability to believe in ones self. Teaching children to find the best qualities they have and being individual is grand. The elements contain exercise, nutrition, and positive stimulation of the mind that will create positive energy and self strength. The program is in the infancy stages and we will build upon the program to have the future generational leaders understand their communities and how to strengthen them. The Andrew J. Peterson Foundation has desires for our children to do the best with their abilities and to set goals in their lives. They want the children of our community to find inner strength and positive power to overcome obstacles they may face. For it is not what happens to us in our life, it is how we brush off our knees and move forward that truly counts. Inspiring the children of our community is a set goal at the Foundation. Those at the Foundation will work hard to develop determined, strong, and creative children to rise up with the world and embrace the challenges of life. Those at the Foundation have obtained knowledge from their experience, which they would like to share with the community to help preserve future generations. They continue to research, learn, and encourage the same from all hat surrounds us. Please join the Andrew J. Peterson Foundation and the Beehive State Chef's Association in support of this program as we love and nuture children of all ages and want the best for them.
