Is there a proper way to ask for assistance with either of the items? Umm.. for a friend that is going to Vegas soon.

What kind of lifestyle does 10k afford someone in Turkey?

Dude, from a parent with two kids signed up, one girl and one boy, thank you! Finding young men to get involved in the program seems like the biggest hurdle. My wife and I found out about the program and since they are both at the age when mom and dad are pretty uncool, having someone they can relate with and that has a better understanding of what they are dealing with as far as school and social life is huge to them!

I highly suggest the program and we donate a good amount of banners and signage to our local group because they are so fucking awesome!

You did a good thing stepping into that little dudes life, keep spreading the word!!

Not sure how the program works in your area but here they have a lack of people using the program at all and we were approached by the director after a school event and had the same impression. My daughter is always a "big" at home with her little brother, its nice for her to have someone older than her to hang with since she doesn't have any older friends and the friends her own age aren't really equipped to give any extra guidance. I was unaware that a benchmark existed for how fucked up a kids life has to be before they can do something like this. It's not about making friends their own age and if you think that is what the program is, you are wrong. Both want to become bigs when they are old enough so they can pay it forward and maybe help that "disadvantaged" kid down the road. E: My kids being in the program does not prevent anyone else's kids from joining.

I am really amazed at what they do with so little.
