Welcome to Step Up America Foundation The Franklin Project!
"Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember , involve me and I will learn" - Ben Franklin
About Us
Children need to be engaged in order to retain information. Educators are tasked with teaching some subjects that are extremely difficult to get our youth to pay attention to. Civics and history can pose that issue.
We created a solution, The Franklin Project. Utilizing today's technology, we developed an avatar of Benjamin Franklin. His job is to interact with students in real time presenting them with required curricula such as the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence and eleven other lesson plans.
Lacey's Corner

The Step Up America Foundation is proud to announce
that our Partner WWE Superstar Lacey Evans is sponsoring
Our first backpack giveaway contest.
If you are a fan of Lacey Evans and would like to receive a backpack and a personally signed photo of Lacey, kids you have a homework assignment. And parents you must make a tax-deductible donation of at least $25 to Step Up America Foundation.
Entry Rules:
- The homework assignment is a short essay of at least 500 words about a fun and important topic: "What does being a good citizen mean to you?"
- Essays must be sent to info@Stepupamericaprogram.org and donations must be made at www.stepupamericaprogram.org
- The essays must include the child and parent's name and address so if selected as a winner we know where to send the backpack and signed photo.
- Lacey will pick the best 25 essays and will share each of them on her personal social media sites along with a “shout out to your child”.
- The contest will begin on Dec 9, 2020, and will conclude on Jan 30, 2021. We are looking forward to reading all of the submissions and good luck.
