2. Rock The World: The song written by
H-II: Stephen Michael Apatow.
Moving from the front lines during the Tour de America projects, to
the policy and educational sphere, represents the focus of Humanitarian
Resource Institute during
the last 20 years. Arts Integration Into Education through the
United Nations Arts
Initiative is a global initiative to bring the work back to the
grassroots
level.... artists, the arts and entertainment industry encompass the
vehicle.
The
mission is focused on the big picture, identification of the
needs
and potential resources. This is accomplished by connecting
with the executive directors of frontline service programs and working
to address these needs in that community. Demographic analysis of
the
needs landscape and capability of the frontline programs to address
them, provides us with the unmet needs overview. These unmet
needs are then the
focus of the communication objective, as the arts initiative serves as
a "Bridge for Unmet Needs to
Untapped Resources."
When we
pull together all the pieces to
accomplish this mission, we will literally "Rock The World."
3. The
American Way: The song written by
Country Music Association artist H-II: Stephen Michael Apatow,
from the album "Country
Goes Global." As a Christian nation, our
interfaith message is found in the overview "The
Ultimate Objective,"
and reads as follows::
God is
looking down on the picture in your community and he is in
the person of every person crying out for help, rich or poor, suffering
and afflicted. If we went house to house, and we were allowed to
see
the picture He sees, we would have a grasp on the responsibility He has
entrusted into our hands or the mission. In short, it is from
this
vantage point, that we can embrace the message: "whatsoever you
have
done unto one of the least of these my brethren, you have done it unto
me."
