What is Hearts to Children?

Invest in a program that will help older generations build relationships and heal the generation gap.

Provide work experience and meaningful connections for young adults.

Help us focus time and resources on launching the full course as quickly as possible.

The Problem?

The Generation Gap

We have been considering how the principles of 3D-Learning might be applied to the situation older people find themselves in. Our world has completely changed in the last few generations and even in the last few years. As people age, they seem to be more and more distanced from the people in their lives who matter most. This may not be a new problem, but as society has become more specialized, we have also become more fragmented as people. Technology seems to allow more connection but seems to have increased the feeling of being busy. Because of these new distractions, quality time and connection with older people seems to have decreased.

There is no other service that we know of that provides a solution to what we believe is a growing problem. 

People are not being treated as whole persons, but due to busy-ness, technologies, distractions, distance, financial needs, etc. we usually can only view a small fragment of a person and therefore only weakly help them in that one area of their lives. 

The Solution?

The Hearts to Children Course will help participants see a more complete view of themselves and communicate the new viewpoint with their personal relations in an optimized way. 

The Hearts to Children course involves 4 sets of people:

  1. The first group, of course, is the participants, which we think of primarily consisting of those above the age of 55, who therefore have a lot of experience and perspective and who were alive before the internet and smartphones really took off.
  2. The second group includes each participant’s personal relations, several of which have fallen through the cracks and lost touch. These are the people who matter most to the participants. One of the most unique aspects of the Hearts to Children course is that participants will be grouped with three friends who help them and have fun with them as they begin this journey.
  3. The third group comprises the young people (ages 17-25) who are hired to help the groups of four course particpants get going and navigate the course.
  4. The fourth group is the Levie family, including Allen, Martha, and their 10 children. They will provide monthly course materials to participants, including videos and a written workbook. they will work with local groups of 4 ahead of time to demonstrate how the course will work.

Course Content

The first 12 months will cover different essential components and include:

  • A topic/focus for the month
  • A new habit/action
  • A new skill
  • A summary of 3 books

Each month, participants will recieve a video with short snippets including a brief introduciton of the month’s topic with examples, diagrams, and optional step-by-step instructions.

The workbook with introduce options and facilitate the customization for the groups of 4 course participants.

Where your money goes?

Developing the Course

As a sponsor, you will provide the means necessary for us to fully develop and launch the Hearts to Children course. This will include monthly videos and assignments on critical topics like personal relationships, habits, physical well-being, education, family history, current events, and more. As participants complete projects, they will feel empowered to reach out to friends and loved ones and help them engage. They will take their place as mentors, supporters, and cherished friends. Young adult will work as consultants to help the groups of participants with digital media, earning money for education or missions.

Your sponsorship makes it possible for us to change lives in all stages and work to heal the generation gap.  

During this 1st year of development, we expect to be beta testing the material and improving the way the course is delivered. By sponsoring the course development, not only will you get to observe the progress and periodically weigh in as it continues to take shape, but you will also receive 3 licenses which you can share with your parents, yourself, or other people you know who may expecially benefit from this.

Will you sponsor the development of the course material by subscribing to the course one year ahead of its official launch?
