The Brand UR West Coast Launch Party

As many of you know, I have been a big supporter of anti-bullying company “The Brand UR” since it was first formed. This is why I am so pleased that they will be having their West Coast Launch in August 2013. This event is so exciting as it shows that people of all ages are coming together to support the movement to end bullying. Here is the write-up for the event:

On August 9, 2013, The Brand UR will be coming to Los Angeles for an official red carpet launch party! What started as a small organization in the town of Carver, Massachusetts, is now spreading nationally! Below is some information on celebrities and sponsors, but don’t think that’s all! We love surprises and if we told you everyone/everything involved, there’d be none!

Each ticket holder will get to enjoy food, drinks, music, performances, a photobooth and Glitter Tattoos. Each ticket holder will also be going home with a VIP giftbag worth up to $150 each! Spokespeople Ashley Tramonte, Paisley Dickey & Addison LaFountain will also be speaking at the event and sharing their stories!

Meredith Prunty selected as National Spokesperson for Read-Feed-Child

I am honored to be selected as the national spokesperson for red-feed-Child.com. Here is a write-up about the organization (from their website):

The “Dreamer” who feeds the children

“Read With A Child, And Help Feed A Child”

Michael John McCann has a life long track record of community service and involvement. An entrepreneur who ran a successful commercial finance and real estate business, he was a member and former chairman of the Westborough Housing Authority. He was instrumental in creating the town’s senior center and an affordable housing development for the elderly. Now residing in Florida, Michael is the author of PURPLE UMPKIN, the first in a series of illustrated children’s books featuring the Murples.

Imagine feeding a child through a book…
This is exactly what my purpose was in writing this book. It is great to see my book in print, but what makes it special is although you will discover “PurpleUmpkin”, and our enjoyable Murple characters, you will be feeding a child. My main focus of this project is to feed underprivileged children in America. This book is allowing me to help these children and through doing so, I may help them to discover the dreams they have and allow them to come true. It is my goal to continue this passion until one day authors engage with me; together
we can have others read a book and feed a child. – Michael John McCann

 

 We filmed a new video on Friday, August 3, 2013 to be released nationally soon. This picture is taken in the HCAM studios by Mike Torosian.

 

Video Producer Perry Lawrence gives direction to Hopkinton High School Senior and Anti-bullying Advocate Meredith Prunty for an interview with Michael McCann, author of “PURPLE UMPKIN”, the first in a series of illustrated children’s books which proceeds go to his charity Read with a Child and Help Feed a Child.
