Continued on Schedule O.STUDENTS' SCHOLASTIC CONSTITUTION CONTEST - Constituting America's cornerstone initiative, the We The Future Contest, offers America's students, K-College an opportunity to learn about the U.S. Constitution and our country's founding principles in creative and innovative ways. The contest is designed to influence kids through culture by encouraging students to enter this fun and engaging contest that awards prizes for original songs, short films, public service announcements, speeches, poems, drawings and essays inspired by the U.S. Constitution. We then promote the winners' works by distributing them through the national media. We are the only organization that utilizes the movies, music and television with the kids' own works, to inspire Americans of all ages to learn about the U.S. Constitution by distributing their works through the national media.In 2015 we added two new categories to the "We The Future Contest": STEM and Entrepreneurial. To enter the STEM category, students are invited to submit applied technology projects that can be used to promote the U.S. Constitution. Examples we suggest are a random survey of students to test constitutional knowledge, computer games tied to the Constitution or liberties it represents, or apps or web sites showcasing a particular aspect of the Constitution's value in contemporary America. To enter the Entrepreneurial category, students are invite d to design a marketing plan to promote "We The Future Contest." We ask that they focus on one specific age group: Elementary School, Middle School, High School, College, Law School/Graduate School, Adult or Senior Citizen.Over 2,200 entries have been received from across the Nation for the contest (2010-2015), which is judged by a respected panel of well-known judges. Prizes include national exposure and promotion (see "Winner Promotion" program); Scholarship prizes for high school and college students (see below); Mentor Trips (see "Mentor Trip" program); and gift cards and other prizes for younger students. TURNER MAURICE GAUNTT, JR. EXEMPLARY CITIZEN AWARD - In 2014 a new category was added to the We The Future Contest: The Turner Maurice Gauntt, Jr. Exemplary Citizenship Award. This $4,540 scholarship is awarded annually through Constituting America. This scholarship is named for Janine Turner's father, Mr. Turner Maurice Gauntt, Jr. who was the inspiration in Janine Turner's founding of Constituting America. Janine's father was born on December 18, 1934 and departed this life on January 24, 2014.Janine's father taught her from an early age that we are blessed to live as citizens of the United States of America. He was a West Point graduate, and flew with the Strategic Air Command. He was one of the first to fly the revolutionary B-58 Hustler at Mach 2. Janine's father was brave, honest, and resilient. He inspired her to love her country, and be willing to make sacrifices for her. He inspired her to study history, to value lessons learned from both history and great patriots, and to be of service. Mr. Gauntt valued our country's founding principles and our founding fathers' wisdom. With his exemplary service, he honored our United States Constitution.Constituting America awards the Turner Maurice Gauntt, Jr. Exemplary Citizen award every year to a graduating senior, nominated by a teacher or school administrator, whose character mirrors these values.

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActyOtherGrp/Desc0WINNER PROMOTION - Constituting America is the only organization that utilizes the movies, music and television with the kids' own works, to inspire Americans of all ages to learn about the U.S. Constitution by distributing their works through the national media.We submit our winners' PSA's to television stations across the nation, and they are actually played on TV. As of December 31, 2015 29 television stations had our winners' PSA's in rotation with a 2 million reach. We submit our winners' films to film festivals across the nation. As of December 31, 2015 our winners' films - and our "Road Trip Across America" documentary - directed by co-chair Janine Turner - had been accepted into six film festivals, and won two awards: "Road Trip Across America" won Honorable Mention at the Northern Virginia International Film Festival in 2015 and Award of Recognition at the Best Shorts Film Festival. We submit our winners' songs to radio stations and they get played on the radio! In 2015 during our Nashville Summer Mentor Trip, Belmont University donated their historic Quonset Hut studio where Johnny Cash and Elvis Presley recorded, for us to professionally record our best song winners Joy Frost, Kory Shore, Isaiah Jackson, Jim Booker and Domingo and Esteban Hiracheta. In late 2015 we hired a record promoter to promote Joy Frost's single "Free To Believe." The promotion began in early 2016, with the result of 24 million impressions of her song on over 65 radio stations nationally. We submit our winners' essays for national publication, and in April 2015 Sophia Magnuson's best high school essay ran in U.S. News and World Report, as part of a column authored by Peter Roff. We create holiday cards from our students' winning artwork, and these cards are mailed out to national, state and local leaders, and we place the winning artwork on notecards that are sold in our store, and given away as prizes at our public speaking events. ADULT ACADEMIC FORUM - 90 DAY STUDIES - To engage adults in a thoughtful and informative discussion on America's founding principles, and to aid parents in teaching their children about the Constitution, Constituting America launched the "90 in 90" initiative, an online forum that challenges adults to join with others around the nation in reading and discussing founding documents over a 90 Day period. The program is augmented by a notable group of constitutional scholars from across the country who write daily essays on the day's assigned reading. In 2010 Constituting America conducted a 90 Day study of the 85 Federalist Papers and their relevancy today. In 2011, Constituting America divided the U.S. Constitution into a 90 day study, breaking it down into 90 small sections. In 2012 the 90 Day Study examined the Amendments to the Constitution and in 2013 the 90 Day Study's subject was "The Classics that Inspired the Constitution and the Challenges It Faces Today. In 2014 Constituting America worked with our web developer to design a new search engine and coding system for our four years' of founding document studies. We reviewed each of our then 530 essays by over 85 constitutional scholars, and coded each one with a variety of searchable, relevant codes, to enhance students and researchers' ability to quickly access pertinent essays and original documents on specific topics and interests. Over 1,000 man hours were devoted to this project. We debuted our new search engine with a six week contest, promoted on social media, inviting citizens to answer questions about the U.S. Constitution, Federalist Papers and more, by utilizing our search engine to find the answer! In 2015 Constituting America's 90 Day study addressed the topic: Constitutional Crisis - How Executive Overreach is Impeding Your Liberties and Undermining States' Sovereignty: A Study on the Critical Erosion of Constitutional Checks and Balances. Essays in this study were shared over 38,000 times in social media. As of 2015, Constituting America's 90 Day
