James H.
is responsible for creating and implementing a highly successful
ethics program within the Baltimore, MD school system. He
initiated this life-changing "plan of action," which is
based on the Rotary four-way test, when he was 92 years of
age. In 1997, James received a commendation from the
Baltimore superintendent of schools and in 2001 he was presented
with the Rotary "Service above Self" award. Last
year, Wally P. spent two days professionally videotaping the
students, parents, faculty and staff at the Sparks Elementary
School as they practiced the James Houck ethics
program. The objective was to make a twenty minute ethics
program documentary available to school systems throughout the
country. The Back to
Basics Foundation needs
approximately $3,000 in order to complete this project.
Since the video footage has been shot, all that is left to do is
edit the footage, splice in some still photos, and add the
voiceover commentary. If
you would like to contribute to this worthy and worthwhile effort
to bring ethics back into the school systems and change the lives
of countless school children, please contact Wally at 520-297-9348
