San Diego Social Venture Partners

Where the power of business meets the passion of giving

June 15, 2008

It's a Plan...Thanks to LEAD San Diego

A team from LEAD San Diego, including SDSVP Partner Alan Sorkin, developed a business plan for Human Development Foundation, a former SDSVP Investee, to distribute its Parents' PLACE curriculum online to school districts and agencies, statewide. Parents' PLACE engages parents, who may have little education themselves, in their child's education. The curriculum helps parents to learn right along side their child. Parents learn how to conduct a scientific experiment; write an essay; write poetry; select appropriate reading materials at the library and bookstores, and even view the planets through a telescope provided by local astronomers. Kudos to Alan and the LEAD Team for writing the plan and offering to help with the implementation!
