Good day.

In conjunction with the Justice Department, we have just produced an
excellent broadcast quality interactive CD-ROM on "Preventing Violence
Against Women".  This tool was specifically developed for Freshman
women but
applies to everyone.  This product has been designed as an awareness
tool
and as a resource tool in case a woman needs to counsel a friend.

This tool has also been devolved to challenge the understanding of a
healthy
relationship.

The topics covered through various scenarios are - Sexual Assault -
Date
Rape - Aquaintance Rape -  Stalking - Cyber-Stalking - Myths vs Facts
challenge - Are you in a healthy relationship challenge - Date Rape
and
Designer Drug education - and more. There is also a manual that opens
up
more thoughts for discussion.

This product was developed and designed with Florida International
University Victim Advocacy Center and a well qualified focus group. We
also
utilized the students from the "acting department" so this is a very
professional product.

Our company www.interactivelibraryseries.com (Interactive Library
Series) is
very well known and if you check our web site you will be impressed
with our
clients.

We would like to send you a CD-ROM and brochure for review. The costs
are
very reasonable.
$3,000 for the first 500 copies.
$1,500 is a licensing fee which is going to be used for up-dates and
revisions every year.
The second $1,500 is for the disks.
Additional needed disks are available on an escalating scale = The more
you
order if needed, the less they cost.

The thought is to give every freshman their own disk. The second and
continuing years the only costs will be the disks. We will be using
the
licensing fee to produce new scenarios and cover new and different
scenarios.

A final note - When I attended college, many years ago, I was elected
the
Student Body President of my University. I feel confidant that if you
approach this organization for funding, since the SGA is student
activity
money, you will receive the funds.

Also, if you take the time to review our site you will also notice that
we
are using interactive broadcast video to accomplish incredible
education
breakthroughs.  Breast Cancer education, Anti-Violence education, etc.
Our
company is really making a difference.

Thank you for your time,

Sincerely,

Charles Friedman
