Paula Phillips & Right Road Kids™ Receive “Pay it Forward” Donation from Young Leaders

PRLog (Press Release) - Nov. 10, 2010 - Thousand Oaks, CA –  Just a week after being honored by the Oxnard School Board for her  extensive efforts to assist local schools, Paula Phillips convened in Circle time at the Open Classroom Leadership Magnet’s Fall Festival, and found herself in a unique position.  Phillips was thrilled to be accepting several boxes of school supplies for her non-profit organization, Right Road Kids™, a donation from the OCLM student body as part of their leadership training and interest in helping other students.  

Phillips had spent the morning of the Festival working with children in three “Inspiration” centers customized from the Right Road Kids™ curriculum, which focuses on developing self esteem, character and personal talents in children.  She focused on teaching students how their own personal talents and skills can be used in their leadership roles.

"It is crucial for all children -- whatever their age, race, or background -- to learn and develop self-esteem, character, leadership traits, and life-skills. These form the amazing core from which everything else positive in kids’ lives can be built," said Phillips.

Phillips’ customized approach to working with leadership-focused kids at the Fall Festival is indicative of her passion and dedication to helping all kids and schools reach their goals.  It was just over a month ago that she motivated her network of supporters and volunteers to help fill the empty library shelves at Juan Soria Elementary School in Oxnard, CA with a donation of over 2500 books, an event reported by KEYT News. http://www.keyt.com/news/local/Emply-Library-Shelves-Fill...

Additional interactive Centers for the children to explore included "Culinary Arts" overseen by The Lazy Dog Cafe' and "Animal Leadership" presented by the K-9 Program of the Ventura County Sheriff's Department.
