Just so Haley fans will always be the first to know...
A couple of weeks ago, Haley did a great thing for the Pay It Forward Foundation. Maybe a great thing for everybody. He recorded a 30-second public service announcement introducing the Pay It Forward Award. The PSA will appear on both the DVD and VHS movies, so imagine how many people will see it! He will direct people to an AOL keyword which will allow you to go on line and nominate someone for the new Award. The awards will be presented in the fall at the Ford Theater in Washington, DC, and were developed by the Pay It Forward Foundation and our new partners, The Caring Institute. Of course, AOL/Time/Warner has been very generous in helping us get the word out, but having Haley do the PSA was just about the most exciting development possible.
By the way, the press release, which should go out on Monday, clearly states that both the DVD and VHS will release in mid-May. I've watched it wash through lots of Warner Brothers people without correction, so--though please don't hold me to this--that seems to be the word.
I'm feeling really optimistic, even for me.
