Welcome ! Education Pays – Get Yours is a pilot social marketing campaign targeting youth in the Mt. Pleasant, Slavic Village and Central neighborhoods of Cleveland, Ohio. The campaign started in December 2008 and is moving into its' final phase. You may have seen Education Pays-Get Yours billboards, bus signs, radio and tv ads, posters distributed by our street teams, etc. As part of the final push at promoting the importance of education we have established web blogs for each neighborhood. These social networking tools will give residents an opportunity to discuss the campaign and the importance of getting an education.

Blog Buddy--Communications: Keith Jameson (Part 3)

I have two other "milestones." First, an education allowed me to have
the professional experience to start my own company, which I ran for
eight years. That provided me the flexibility and ability to move my
career forward.

Second, seeing my name in a byline in a newspaper article or as the
editor of a publication. It's total ego -- but seeing something that I
produced (often by myself with little other help) gives me a real sense
of accomplishment, and I enjoy knowing that years from now my name and
results of my hard work and education will still be around for others to
read and learn from...

Check back next week for more about Keith Jameson.
