OVERALL MISSION STATEMENT
Our Mission at Starworks Entertainment is a complex one as it goes much deeper than just making the very best & state of the arts entertainment. It is a mission that has many levels, each one aimed at uplifting everyone involved, with people together working hard to help bring everyone to higher heights, even to the stars hence the name of our organization: STARWORKS.
FOR PROFIT MISSION STATEMENT
STARWORKS ENTERTAINMENT GROUP is designed to function both as a productions house and marketing for audio, visual and literary (print) products. The core concept is to develop and produce top quality CD's Videos, Sheet Music/Books and multimedia, as a cross-fertilization of talent in alliance with a roster of successful companies in the media and entertainment fields as well as other key strategic alliances. Thus, Starworks not only will produce the most unique projects with mass-market appeal, but will also serve as a resource for distribution, PR, international rights, a production studio, and the list continues. The network of strategic alliances will ensure the continual influx of new talent, co-productions, matching capital, and service-based project monies, and so on to maintain a high standard of cash flow and company profits. The corporation will consider key acquisitions, which further support the solvency of the company--such as securing space and renting to allied clients who not only increase business for StarWorks, but as landlord allows us to operate on a rent free and/or profit basis. The successful implementation of the above creates an ideal mechanism for the later public offering.

"In these
perilous and uncertain times with looming rumors and threats of natural and man
made disasters in the 21st century, it is a common place to see an increase of
despair brought on by a lack of resources and jobs for people to succeed and
reach their goals and aspirations".
"It is especially hard for those living among crowded cities, where there are
more people than jobs, training and schools. Those that suffer the hardest among
these people are children, teens and young adults who have very little voice and
whom get passed over repeatedly when it comes to funding to provide
opportunities"
”This is why the organizations of Starworks Productions Inc., and it's
affiliates and partners have come together in a massive effort to aide in
creating jobs, building community and training centers and alternative
schools.”
Starworks
Entertainment Group recognize these issues that young people face, and have also
realized that to help beat these odds in helping to provide platforms for youth,
can be a very expensive and a very large undertaking”
”This is why Starworks and it's affiliates in a very unique and unprecedented
partnership have joined forces bringing organizations and cities together,
pulling together all resources possible to help combat these odds and provide
real and viable means to provide youth with a fighting chance to make some of
their dreams come true.”
”This partnership has taken the shape of an on going charitable effort
where entertainers, and community people put together large fundraising
concerts, tours and other projects to raise funding to build these opportunities
and to spread the message of hope to all major cities that children don't have
to suffer anymore and that it doesn't matter where you are from if we pull our
love and energies together we can make a difference and help make a child's
future bright and dreams a reality.”

Numbers Don’t Lie:
How an Atlanta Based Non Profit Organization Plans to Change Statistics
These statistics are not isolated numbers intended to sensationalize the growing problems among inner city youth. These statistics are results of war, educational cutbacks and stunted cultural growth. Inner city families, schools and communities are operating below the poverty line and gaining less support. This lack of support has created unhealthy numbers of violent deaths, teenage pregnancy, and unemployment and higher education opportunities. The advent of these happenings has left some community leaders in a state of shock.
When community activist Grant Love realized that these statistics were mirror images of his own community he knew he had to take action, “When our kids don’t have anything to look forward to or develop, they begin looking for something to hold on to. Unfortunately, many of the things they end up holding on to won’t help them, but instead will hurt and harm them”
Recognizing this civic devastation, People Uplifting People In Life (P.U.P.I.L.) has dedicated itself to giving back to urban communities, and helping them grow strong and productive. According to the 1999 Hobbs Research, humanity and technological skills are essential for young people to feel satisfaction and contribute to society. For today’s at-risk youth, opportunities to acquire these skills may not be readily available. Many high budget youth-serving organizations serve youth who are primarily from advantaged families
“We have to begin exposing our children to all the same opportunities as any suburbanite We have to allow our kids to understand their worth, their need and their futures”, states Love when asked why he believes P.U.P.I.L. is necessary.
The Atlanta based not for profit organization is committed to bringing Humanities and Technological education and training to Atlanta’s urban populace and schools. Founded in 1999 by Grant Love, P.U.P.I.L. is a heroic response to the growing statistics related to lack of jobs & job training, technological education, skills and artistic outlets.

Objective of the Tour
The objective of the tour is to raise enough capital to purchase land, begin construction, and operate a state of the art ad self-funding P.U.P.I.L., Arts, Technology & Educational Center, called H.O.M.E./C.A.S.A., which stands for House Of Mental Edification/Center for Culture, Art and Social Awareness. It will be open to all youth, young adults and adults in the Atlanta Metro Area and abroad for the purpose of bringing all programs, non profit organizations, participants, and mentors in one central location. These efforts are even more dedicated to raising funds and awareness, for Corazon a Corazon, an international relief organization dedicated to providing supplies, foods and free health services to the devastated communities of the Mosquito Coast in Honduras, along with aid for HIV/AIDS in Africa our Leading Global Health Cause. The Africa HIV/AIDS program will be benefiting grass roots organizations which will supply medical staff, education and treatment, financial support, and provide safe medical facilities to the infected individuals on the Continent of Africa. Each city that the tour will visit, P.U.P.I.L. will partner with local non profit organizations and assist them with resources, support, and a portion of the tours proceeds will be dedicated to their cause.
The Concert Component
The Concert Component brings national and international recording artists whose lyrics; music and community involvement promotes unity, peace, personal and spiritual empowerment. This year we are targeting artists such as Ani Difranco, Lenny Kravits, Alicia Keys, Mos Def, Hezekiah Walker as well as many others who will represent all genres of music bringing a very diverse audience to the event. Providing this type of atmosphere will assist in bridging the cultural and socio-economic gaps between the diverse communities throughout the Greater Atlanta Metro Area and abroad. National Recoding Artists will attend Meet-n-Greet events with our business sponsors, city officials and most importantly educational seminar participants; providing morale boosters for everyone in which they come into contact. Throughout the length of the tour P.U.P.I.L. and its Community Partners will conduct Educational Workshops that will empower and educate all participants who purchase tickets for the musical concert as well as the local community.
The Educational Component
The Educational Components are various training seminars that are specific to all communities. The seminars consist of health screenings, computer training, and clothes/food drives, or other social issues that are facing many communities today. These seminars will be held at schools and/or other appropriate facilities. We will work with our Community Partners, local governments and businesses to educate communities locally and nationwide.
Preventive Health Care Component
These preventive health screenings will be hosted by organizations that specialize in helping communities and will consist of sickle cell anemia, HIV/AIDS awareness, blood cholesterol level, blood sugar level, asthma, blood pressure, cancer, (American Cancer Society), heart disease (American Heart Association), osteoporosis, diabetic, dental screenings (Colgate Bright Smiles, Bright Futures Oral Care Van), and mammography. In addition, drug and alcohol abuse resources, CPR, training, fitness demonstrations, and healthy eating tips will be provided to help educate participants on how to maintain their own health and well being after this event has left their city.
