DONATION OUTREACH INITIATIVE - Please Help Preserve Innocence
The problem:
The number one fear of parents and children in America is that they are not safe from the ever growing threat of criminal predators. WHY? You cannot pick up a newspaper or turn on the television without hearing about another abduction or abused child.
October 2007 - A man walks into a church, plays with four children, then abducts a four year old girl. He drives to a secluded location, molests her, then dumps her out on the road.
November 2007 - CEO of the National Children's Museum in Washington, D.C. is arrested for transmitting ilicit child pornography over the internet to an undercover police officer.
Incidents like these are everywhere in neighborhoods all across the United States. Unfortunately they have become the norm instead of the rarity.
America's children are in crisis. Assaults have reached epidemic proportions. Facts & statistics...read on
These cases will continue until WE AS CARING AMERICANS take action to stop them!

WHY WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT:
For several years the charity has received financial support from the U.S. Congress to help activate volunteer sites nationwide. However, due to the financial burden of the war in the Middle East, we have been notified by the offices of Senator Barbara Mikulski and Congressman Steny Hoyer that all charitable support from the Congress has been suspended until the war ends.
HOW CAN YOU HELP?
GKCEN has hundreds of volunteer locations across the United States desperately seeking the eduational materials to keep children safe, but because of budget cuts they cannot afford them. We are seeking corporate and private donations to help get the lifesaving Good Knight child safety mentoring materials into the hands of these educators in schools, YMCAs, churches, daycares, organizations, camps and children's groups. With your donations you can help seed your community and/or other sites with the information that will raise the awareness of youth so that they don't fall to sexual predators, gangs, drugs, and other forms of crime and violence.
Levels of Tax Deductible Support:
An Individual Deluxe Security Set - Production cost is $39.95.
A Case of Deluxe Security Sets - Bulk production cost is $455.75 for a case of 14 sets.
Monetary Donation - one time, monthly or annually
Invest Advertising Dollars by putting your logo and business information on the safety materials
You may also donate to our Programs Fund to sponsor live safety presentations by the cast of the Magic Castle either in your community or at our Castle headquarters location in Beltsville, MD
