We now have five printable billboards available in Spanish. Print them up for your office, school, classroom, or doctor’s office. We have Bethany Hamilton, Liz Murray, Marlon Shirley, Mother Teresa, and Nola Ochs. Visit the downloads section of our website; they are at the bottom of the list of billboards. Enjoy!!

Want to promote values in your community or school? We’ve found a great way to do this is to host a “nominate your hero” program. Local community members, parents, children, students, teachers, etc. are nominated by their colleagues for exemplifying one or more of the values promoted by The Foundation for a Better Life. This program unites the community as all are encouraged to look for the good deeds that their friends, co-workers and families are doing. In addition, holding an “awards ceremony” at the end of the allotted time provides recognition for both the nominated and the nominators, furthering a sense of community and solidarity. You could even take it a step further and Create A Billboard for those who have been nominated.

For more information on what this program might look like in your community, contact Brooke Nord today!

Now you can enjoy The Foundation for a Better Life on both Facebook and Twitter. On Facebook you can join a community of others who are helping us promote values daily. By following us on Twitter, you can receive the daily quote each morning, as well as automatic updates when we add neat features to our site!

Lastly, we would love your feedback—what could we do better? What would make the website easier to use or more fun? Please email us your comments—just write to brooke@values.com and let us know.
