Leave No Parent Behind
Leave No Parent Behind
Q1: Any advice on creating a non-profit arm and getting our program into the hands of the less advantaged would be helpful. We know we must reach out to the other end of the parenting spectrum soon.
Idea Description
Wiggle Giggle Learn believes that knowledge is power. Many times parents don't have the child development knowledge necessary to be their child's first teacher. Books, websites and other moms are great resources for sharing what the child should be doing at each age. Our individualized learning activity plans go a step farther to provide the "how" children learn in an organized weekly format. Tougher curriculum standards at an earlier age are a result of the No Child Left Behind law. Many skills once mastered in first grade are now required in kindergarten, skills like the ability to read simple text. We are in the business of educating parents & their young children to ensure success!
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
We would use the $10,000.00 to set up a non-profit division of Wiggle Giggle Learn (http://www.wigglegigglelearn.com). Those who need our program the most depend on donor funds. As a for-profit business, we aren't able to reach out to this sector. Currently we sell our products via a download in our shopping cart. However, for the less advantaged sector, we will need to have capital to provide printed and bound learning plan books. We will also need to plan for more employees/volunteers to offer the support needed by this group of parents.

Post a commentI like your idea; I want to improve your odds of getting funding I will vote for your idea if you will vote for mine. My idea is for a web site that raises money for inventors and entrepreneurs called New Idea website Check out my idea blob submission and visit New Idea Website and see what I can do for you. http://www.ideablob.com/ideas/4060-NEW-IDEA-WEBSITE The need for jobs is one of the biggest problems that a democratic government faces because creating jobs is an unwanted byproduct of business and industry. The reason I say its unwanted is the more jobs a business creates the more its expenses are and the smaller it’s bottom-line. If business and industry have their way they would run their companies with no jobs at all no management or labor. To deal with this dilemma I pr…moreopose a federal venture capital carrot fund that literally pays entrepreneurs to create jobs. The investment bank would be expected invest in seed level startup projects like yours and to lose money at a specified dollar per jobs ratio for example during hard times that figure may be as high as $20,000 per job and good times the figure may be as low as five dollars per job, by controlling this ratio the fed could roughly control unemployment. The bank will be expected to fund novel products and services and stay away from things like restaurants that will simply draw jobs from other restaurants or moving factories from one part of the country to another. If you like this idea vote for it and send the congressional letter from the website. Sincerely Frank Scruggs
