Constituton Project, Inc.

The Mission: Constitution Project, Inc., a Florida non-profit, was founded by Joseph Cofield, for the purpose of putting a copy of the U.S. Constitution and Declaration of Independence in the hands of every 5th grade student in Florida. That is a huge task, as there are over 200,000 5th graders in 67 different Florida counties, but progress ​ is being made thanks to Joseph's extraordinary efforts!

The How: Joseph began his mission in April 2014 and since then, many amazing things have happened. To gather support for his mission, in April of 2015 he began his 27 - 67 Journey Across Florida - visiting each of the 67 Florida counties, riding his bike 21 miles and running 6 in each county (one mile for each of the 27 Amendments). That is over 1,800 difficult miles meeting with state and county officials, school personnel and service organizations.

I know that many people are starting to read my posts on the blog because I was asked two very important questions.

First, why the picture with DeSoto County instead of Manatee County in the last post. Secondly, I was asked to post the example of the PBS program at the elementary school.

Thus, you will now find both of the corrections. Please do information me of any errors or oversights and I will be glad to make any adjustment. When you assist me in this area it makes my job easier when I wrap this up after the completion of the 27 - 67 journey across Florida; in addition, I will know that you are really following my posting and keeping me in your prayers.

These pictures are for you now for you and the supporter of took the time to catch my mistake in my last posting:
