P.E.A.C.E. is a non-profit foundation and will be responsible for the following non-profit projects under the umbrella of Eye Images Media but will function as an autonomous wing of Eye Images:
Global Educational Summer Camp
This camp will host middle school students from all over the world in a different city each year. The purpose of the camp is to bring children together from different cultures and backgrounds so that may learn about each other's cultures, traditions and
backgrounds. At the end of the 6 week program, the attendants will return to their individual countries full of knowledge about the rest of the world. This is a mean of connecting the future leaders and adults, free of racism and prejudices.
HIV/AIDS Awareness Campaign
This campaign is designed to educate young adults in Liberia on safe sex. The campaign will not teach abstinence because we all know that you cannot tell adults to refrain from engaging in sex. The campaign will not only pass out condoms, which is what
other organizations have done in the past and the young adults simply took the condoms home and never picked them up again. We have devised a unique method of reaching the young people and capturing and retaining their attention. That is through music. We have created a music CD that
raps the lyrics on how to practice safe sex by wearing condoms. The campaign will pass out T-shirts, caps, CD's, bumper stickers, pens and pencils and notebooks to students and young adults alike with the slogan: "I said NO to unprotected sex". We will saturate the Liberian
market with the CD's by playing it on the radio and in nightclubs to get our message across. Out of 2.5 million people in Liberia, there are 100,000 reported HIV/AIDS cases and we suspect that there are just as many unreported cases.
School of Arts, Technology & Vocation
This school will be built in Liberia. The purpose of the school is to capture the 86% of Liberia's population that is 25 years and under. Those are the children that were born after 1980 and during the long civil war. Schools were shut down and children
as young as 8 years old became child soldiers. They grew up in a society that only fed them gunfire, how to avoid getting killed and how to kill another person. They are illiterate and P.E.A.C.E., under the umbrella of Eye Images will have fund raisers to build this school and open it's
doors to the public that is hungry for education. We will teach Music, Acting, Singing, Dancing, Technology, TV, Radio, Film Making, Carpentry, Cosmetology & Cosmetic Manufacturing. We will hire the best of instructors and have state of the art facilities.
