The Pepsi-Cola Company has a project in which they will give away $1,300,000 in grants to worthy efforts
each month for 12 months. I have been selected as one of the grants to be voted upon. I wish to help teach
school kids radio theory and to help them get an Amateur Radio license. I'd like to see a radio laboratory established
in schools and become a part of the curriculum all over the country, kind of like chemistry labs. They will learn science,
mathematics and other things which will help them throughout life. I need your help. I am asking for a $25,000 grant.
The top ten submissions who get the most votes, will be given a grant. The next 100 will carried
over to be voted on again.
There are thousands of Amateur operators across the country with hundreds of local radio chapters who already
help interested parties study for their Amateur Radio licenses. They also administer license tests in accordance with rules
set by the Federal Communications Commission. There would be no problem in getting all kinds of volunteers to help out. Also,
there would be many donations of equipment and other items needed to bring success.
This is just for the area in which I live, but hopefully, once things can get organized, it will spread
quickly across the country. To those living in the Ozarks, should I be fortunate to receive the grant, I will need all
kinds of volunteers needed to help me out. I live in Verona, Missouri. If you can help out in any way, let me know.
