Harvey, you've been someone I've looked up to since we met 10 years ago, and I've been looking forward to seeing this project for a long time. I'm proud to help you out with this, and I wish you the best of luck as you finish the campaign! (Doesn't this site rock? We used it to finance my feature, too :)

Harvey, I wish I could give more but I know every dollar helps. This is such a worthwhile project...I'm happy to be a very small part of it. I wish you every success. Your mom and dad would be so proud.
Creator Victoria H. Schwartz on December 27, 2010
I don't have a lot to give, but I want to support this project because I have a dyslexic son and an (undiagnosed) dyslexic husband who have struggled mightily with reading. My son has a very difficult time convincing his teachers that he is really trying! I hope this movie will educate people about the problems dyslexics face.

Harvey,
The home movies in the video were fantastic. I caught a glimpse of your dad and I remember your home just down the road from the church. Oh, and the front steps of Halwey School shot. I still have my 4th grade Safety Patrol picture which was taken on those steps! Donation inbound buddy. Keep up the inspirational work. ---Paul Alexander

Harvey all the best with this project. I have a podcast in process for Dyslexia that will be on my dd3.tv network. Contact me on dd and that's at madeezy with a dot com. Let's sort out an interview and discussion for the podcast ok. Put Dyslesia in the subject heading. Thanks David.
Creator Pat Winsemius on November 21, 2010
Do your solutions include the Davis Dyslexia Correction program? The Davis program changed my son's life! I agree that the schools need to implement this program at the kindergarten level. It will eliminate the confusion that dyslexics experience as they begin to work with 2 dimensional medium. Where can I find out more about the solutions you recommend in the film? I need to know this before I can fully the project.
Creator Cupcake on November 18, 2010
We think Harvey is amazing for all that he is doing for others! We need to help people learn how to teach and treat those with learning differences. Thanks Harvey!
Creator Stephanie Herman Productions on November 7, 2010
Hello Harvey,
I would like to talk to you further about your new movie.
We have produced a documentry about Dyslexia and a school that specializes in teaching to these kids. Maybe we could collaborate our productions?

Harvey is a very nice guy, and this is a great cause/project... Support it, every dollar counts.
Creator Colleen Theresa McSpirit on October 12, 2010
Just wondering if you can get listed under Education for searching. Less choices and for those who want to support your work because of it's focus it might attract more donors. Just a thought.
Thank you for all you do! Colleen
