Profiles in Caring filiming a JLU Documentary!

A prestigious non-profit TV program called Profiles in Caring (led by Lynn Peterson in Salt Lake City, UT) approached us and offered to produce a TV segment about JLU and what we do. They own Goodtube and their programming is aired on over 100 stations nationwide and in over 40 countries!

And we said ...

Yes!!!

What a way to get our name and message out to the public!


We'll make sure to let you know when it air on a station near you. Also, watch out for celebrity guest appearances from NBA superstars like Amare Stoudemire and NFL stars like Larry Fitzgerald, Adrian Peterson and Troy Polamalu.

"Tom and Jerry" at PACOIMA

Pepperdine MBA '09 Tom Urbanek is becoming somewhat of a regular at Pacoima Elementary.



We were teaching them about India, so we played a few Indian games like Dog & The Bone (my favorite), where you have to pick up the "bone" and run back to your team without being tagged ....

The kids love the "Tom & Jerry" reference!
