Did I say FREE?
I meant mostly FREE.

In 2011 I am donating 10% of my time (every other Wednesday) to help young people in our community who want to free themselves from a toxic and debilitating behavior before major damage is done.


Requirements:

1. Write me an email explaining why it is so
   important that you become smoke-free
   
   *note: acceptance is not guaranteed.  factors include availability of space, and
   the readiness level of client.
   .
2. Once accepted, make a donation of any amount to any one of the local charities on this website. 
   
   *recommended minimum donation
   - One month's worth of cigarette money
   How will you spend the other 11 months of savings?
   
   
3. Select your date & time to become a non-smoker

Why Donate?

I understand that money is tight these days, especially if you're a student.  Even though I will not receive a penny for my time, here is why I ask you to donate:
.

1. It helps to ensure the very high success rate our paid clients enjoy.  When people have "skin" in the game, they tend to be more highly motivated.
   .
2. It helps to ensure that these valuable time slots are not wasted.  Over 30% of clients will miss their appointments if they have nothing at stake.  (I discovered this my first year in business before I began accepting deposits.)
   .
3. Helping others feels good, and it makes our community a better place.  Your mind can more fully accept this gift for yourself, knowing that your are paying it forward to others.

Why am I Donating?

• Despite public awareness of the dangers, smoking has risen on college campuses to one in three students.
  
  
• If our initiative can play a role in breaking this dependency, and add quality years to a even few of these lives, then the return on investment will be priceless.
