The Wall Street Alpha Charitable Foundation Inc. (WSACF) in collaboration with the "Wall Street Alphas Road Runners Club" (an officially recognized running club of the New York Road Runners) presents "Miles 4 Mentorship". Shawn Curwen, President of the WSACF will be running his second NYC Marathon to benefit this inaugural event where donations will be raised to supply educational programming and scholarships to the students of the Alpha G.E.N.T.S. (Gaining Essential Networking Tools for Success) mentorship program .
There are significant issues that disproportionately affect African-American and Latino-American men in our urban areas. We have seen higher incidences of imprisonment and attrition from high school, decreased reading aptitude, and higher rates of Sexual Transmitted Diseases, specifically HIV/AIDS. It is the long-standing belief of the WSACF, that education is the key to changing the mentality of our youth. The Alpha G.E.N.T.S. mentoring program provides these young men with extraordinary life-changing experiences through a myriad of educational programs, college trips and life long mentoring.
Through fundraisers like "Miles 4 Mentorship" and the support of sponsors, the WSACF and Wall Street Alphas Road Runners Club will provide resources and solutions to build intellectual and social equity among the underrepresented youth and their communities. These resources are vital if we are to have a positive impact on the lives of our youth.

How many times have you said, "I wish I knew then what I know now"? Many a project manager has had the same thought. We asked the managers behind big ventures, including the development of the battery for General Motors' Chevy Volt, Facebook's home page redesigns, and Method's growing line of green cleaning products, for the most important lesson they've learned for launching projects with maximum success.
