The It's Cool to be a Nerd Campaign: Re-Instilling A Love for Learning in Our Communities is a national initiative that challenges adults and youth to become NERDS! NERDS! is an acronym for New-found Excellence, Respect, Drive, and Success! That is what this effort is all about - challenging adults and youth to become lifelong learners!

As part of the NERDS! (New-found Excellence, Respect, Drive, and Success!) Initiative, I share inspirational talks with youth, parents, educators, and adults in recovery.

Please feel free to email lpinder@thetakeactionnetwork.com to schedule a NERDS! Challenge with your camp, school, church, business, substance abuse program, and/or community organization.
