The Black Eyed Peas’ Peapod Foundation and Adobe Foundation Launch Youth Academy in New York

The Black Eyed Peas’ Peapod Foundation and Adobe Foundation Launch Youth Academy in New York
Fourth Music and Multimedia Academy Fosters Creativity and Expression for Underserved Youth

Adobe Systems Incorporated  (NasdaqGS: ADBE )

NEW YORK----The Black Eyed Peas Peapod Foundation and the Adobe Foundation are launching a new Peapod Adobe Youth Voices music and multimedia academy in New York City. Building on the success of existing academies in Oakland, Los Angeles and Redwood City, Calif., the collaboration between the two non-profit foundations focuses on empowering underserved youth. The academies make leading technologies available for art, dance, music and video production which, in turn, nurture self-expression, creativity, community involvement and digital literacy among young people.

“Our passion for music and media was fueled by many generous people on our road to success”

.The New York academy will be located at 21 Howard Street in a facility operated by Urban Arts Partnership, an organization designed to advance the intellectual, social and artistic development of underserved public school students through arts-integrated education programs. The site will feature professional-grade multimedia creation software and an innovative curriculum developed by Adobe Youth Voices, the signature program of the Adobe Foundation, combined with high-tech music studio tools and a premium recording facility provided by the Peapod Foundation. Through the creation of digital media projects and expression via the performing arts, underprivileged teens are given the opportunity to find their voices, comment on important topical issues and inspire social change in their communities.
Six-time Grammy Award-winning recording artists The Black Eyed Peas – will.i.am, apl.de.ap, Taboo and Fergie – will officially announce the new Peapod Adobe Youth Voices Academy at a private ceremony today. Beginning July 2011, programs and services will be offered for youth ages 13-19. An estimated 150 youth are expected to participate in the academy annually.
“We are thrilled to work with the Peapod Foundation and Adobe Foundation to provide cutting edge programs to our youth,” said Philip Courtney, executive director, Urban Arts Partnership. “The academy will provide our young people with ongoing, multi-year opportunities to advance their artistic, academic and social development and make a difference in the world around them. Our goal is to motivate students to express their views in fresh, powerful ways – whether in a video documentary they produce themselves, a music recording or a dance performance.”
“Our passion for music and media was fueled by many generous people on our road to success,” said will.i.am. “Expanding the network of Peapod Adobe Youth Voices Academies enables us to pay it forward, giving more youth the skills and encouragement they need to realize their dreams.”

“We have seen tremendous results from our youth participants since we first partnered with the Peapod Foundation in August 2009,” said Michelle Mann, executive director, Adobe Foundation. “Not only are these teens building self esteem and exploring their creativity with leading-edge technologies, they are bringing change and awareness to social issues affecting their communities and acquiring the critical, real-world skills they need to prosper in the global 21st century economy.”
The Peapod Adobe Youth Voices Academies have served more than 1,000 teens to date. A fifth site, planned for San Jose, Calif., will be opened later this year. Students from the Redwood City academy have traveled as far as Washington, D.C., and Munich, Germany, to screen and perform their projects at conferences such as the U.S. Department of Education’s National Youth Summit and the Digital Life Design Women's Conference.

About Urban Arts Partnership
Urban Arts Partnership, founded in 1991 as a not-for-profit cultural organization based on the belief that art is essential to human development, education and culture, provides arts education and integration programs to underserved schools and communities throughout New York City. Urban Arts Partnership currently partners with 65 underserved schools, impacting more than 12,000 students annually with the mission of advancing the intellectual, social and artistic development of underserved public school students through arts-integrated education programs to close the achievement gap. For the past 18 years, UAP has created in-depth partnerships with schools and communities by implementing art programs that help youth better understand essential academic content while exploring new tools to support their social and emotional development. UAP’s theater, video, visual arts, dance, design, poetry, and music education programs have visited over 250 New York City public schools and engaged more than 30,000 young people, teachers and community members. An emphasis on inquiry-based pedagogy challenges young people to become active learners, eager to exercise critical thinking, leadership and creative skills.


About The Black Eyed Peas Peapod Foundation
The Black Eyed Peas Peapod Foundation encourages social change by uniting people, especially children, through the universal language of music. In 2008, the foundation opened the first Peapod Music & Arts Academy, a state-of-the-art music and educational center and recording facility serving foster care youth and other at-risk teens, at the Watts/Willowbrook Boys and Girls Club. The Peapod Foundation was established as a Charitable Service Fund administered by the Entertainment Industry Foundation. For more information, visit http://www.thepeapodfoundation.com/.


About Adobe Youth Voices

By harnessing the energy and insight of youth 13-19 years old, Adobe Youth Voices aims to inspire a dialogue for change in their communities. The program engages youth to express themselves through documentary videos, photography, print media, radio diaries, animation, Web communications and other media. Since 2006, the Adobe Youth Voices global network has grown to more than 700 sites, grantees and organizations in 45 countries, and has engaged more than 76,000 youth and 4,000 educators in schools and out-of-school programs.

Young YouTube Musician Raises Funds and Awareness for Safe House at Pine Ridge Reservation

February 15, 2011 (Investorideas.com Newswire)- Investorideas.com and its non-profit newswire interviews Illinois based musician, Dan Ross, as he nears his date for his 2000 mile walk across America for peace.

Q: Investorideas.com
Dan, you walk for peace is in Synchrodestiny with the universe now as we have witnessed one of the most dramatic and peaceful protests by a people in Egypt.
Can you tell us what motivated and inspired you to take on such a challenging endeavor?
A: Dan Ross
Honestly, I was watching "Forrest Gump" one night during the fall of 2010 when I was first struck with the idea to walk across 2/3 of the country. For those of you who are unfortunate enough not to have seen the movie (because it's a good one!), the main character spontaneously decides to run across the entire country, and it is certainly an inspiring moment in the film. Before that night, I had already planned on moving out of my hometown in 2011, in an effort to broaden my horizons and gain a new clarity of mind so that I might discover what I'd like to pursue in life; I just wasn't sure exactly where I would go or how I'd get there. So I would say that I was primed, ready, and waiting for a good idea to come along. All I needed was a spark of inspiration.
What motivates me to take on such a challenging endeavor is the fact that it IS a challenge. I enjoy pushing myself, if for no other reason than to test my own potential. Also, I believe traveling is one of the wisest things a person can do with their time and money- it allows you to learn things which cannot be taught. The possibilities of what I can learn from this journey are more than enough to motivate me to do it.
Q: Investorideas.com
You have chose the youth of the Pine Ridge Reservation and the building of the Safe House and youth center as your non-profit to dedicate this to. A white youth from Illinois dedicating his walk to the native youth at Pine Ridge is an unexpected storyline; can you tell us how that came to be?
A: Dan Ross
Once I was certain that I would walk to the ocean in 2011, I began to think that maybe someone besides myself could benefit from this whole thing. After quite a bit of brainstorming, I was still unable to decide what cause I would walk for. Then, amidst the planning of my route, I noticed I would be walking right through the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota, a place which I knew nothing about at the time. So I did a little research, and the information I found was startling and overwhelming- unemployment estimated at 87%, life expectancy of about 50 years, 90% living below the federal poverty level, and teenage suicide rates 3 1/2 times the national average. I couldn't believe that this place was located practically right in the middle of the United States. The fact that I was unaware of the situation at Pine Ridge makes me think that most others living in this country are unaware, as well. From this point on, I was sure that I had found a just cause.
After notifying One Spirit that I would like to help, we decided I should dedicate the walk primarily to the youth on the reservation. If you provide the younger generation with a safer childhood, and more opportunities to learn and grow, it becomes likely that they will want to take action to help the next generation in the same way. If all a child knows growing up is poverty, it's easier to turn to drugs and/or gangs as a way out. I want to help show them something better.
Q: Investorideas.com
Listening to your music, and you are really good by the way, one of your songs is called "Taking action ". Is that how you live your life?
A: Dan Ross
I will admit that I am not always "taking action" in my life, and that I don't mean to either. I like taking the time to think things through and plan carefully to ensure that when I do take action, I get results. However with that being said, there has been a lack of action being taken in my life this past year. I suppose I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up, but wait, I'm already grown up! 2010 seemed to fly by, and my mind is clouded with uncertainty regarding where I'm going in life. By embarking on this walk, I will take action to gain a new perspective on things, and help the Lakota people in the process.
Q: Investorideas.com
We saw with Egypt how the young protesters made effective use of Facebook.com and Twitter.com to get their message and story out. Do you see it playing a big role in your walk and getting donations and awareness?
A: Dan Ross
Facebook and Twitter are certainly crucial in raising awareness for the walk. One Spirit and myself have already established contact over Facebook with people in other states who are eager to help coordinate the walk and spread the word. Throughout the walk I'll be posting updates on both Facebook and Twitter about where I am and what I'm doing so people can follow along. So if you're interested, join the group! And invite your friends!
Q: Investorideas.com
What is your goal in terms of dollar amount you hope to raise with your walk and how can people donate and support what you are doing?
A: Dan Ross
I would rather not set a specific $ amount for a goal, as the main purpose of the walk is not only to raise money for the youth center One Spirit plans to build on the reservation, but also to raise awareness of the conditions at Pine Ridge. People who have never even heard of the place (like myself before this whole thing got started) need to know about it, because it's right here in America. Even if all I accomplished at the end of the walk was telling everyone about it, I would still consider it a success.
To donate, you can become a sponsor and give a dollar amount per mile, per state, or for the entire trip by visiting the One Spirit website at <www.nativeprogress.org>. Donations can be made through the website using Paypal, or by mailing a check or money order to :

One Spirit
P.O. Box 3209
Rapid City, SD 57709

Additional information regarding the walk can easily be found at the website. Even if you don't have much to give, every little bit counts and is greatly appreciated!
Q: Investorideas.com
Any inspirational words for our readers in closing?
A: Dan Ross
Travel. Go places. Meet people. See and do things you've never seen and done before. It will make you more worldly, which makes you wiser. Staying in the same place for too long without ever leaving, not even for a small weekend trip, will cause your world to shrink around you, and you'll shrink with it. So broaden your horizons, see the world, and be aware of what's going on both near and far and you will be better for it.

Lyrics:

We can all walk on water

If the Oil gets too thick

Ain't the work of heavens

Its just an oil slick

As the water runs darker

The ocean cries out

It sends back our Karma

What's this all about?Chorus

- Deepwater keeps rising

WIth a black broken heart
