Elegant Way FoundationT Collaborates with Children's Charities to Help
Bridge the Lost Social Skills Gap
PALM BEACH, Fla., April 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The Elegant Way
FoundationT announced today an educational collaboration to help
overstretched organizations supporting underprivileged children -
starting with several South Florida children's charities, which will
then expand to collaborations in Central Florida and Ohio -- to bridge
the gap of lost social skills and assist in underscoring the benefits
of good manners and civility among children. EWF is focused on serving
as an educational extension of these organizations to provide tools
and programs that reinforce the importance of establishing a necessary
social foundation early to better prepare youth for the future.

"We came to understand in our years of working with youth that
children truly gain self-confidence, respect for others and oneself as
well as an understanding of good sportsmanship while they are learning
gracious manners and focusing on doing good deeds," said Loretta Neff,
Founder of The Elegant Way Foundation, K.A.M.PTM and author of Tame
Your Manners at K.A.M.P. Safari. "We created The Elegant Way
FoundationT and designed K.A.M.P. TM as well as Tame Your Manners to
help provide children with a solid social foundation that they will be
able to draw from throughout their life as they mature."
Realizing not all parents can afford to send their children to
K.A.M.P.T, author Loretta Neff and The Elegant Way FoundationT
launched their first children's educational book Tame Your MannersT to
provide an inexpensive and timesaving solution for parents, as well as
a reference to reinforce the curriculum as a family. In addition,
charities, missions, and schools can use the book as a fundraising
tool.
Tame Your MannersT at K.A.M.P. Safari is a fun, meaningful and, most
importantly, memorable way for a child to learn manners. Any adult or
child who reads this book will delight in the clever illustrations and
correlations of animal characteristics. Phrases like "lions don't need
to roar," "don't be a whino rhino," and "stand tall like a giraffe"
will be forever fixed in a reader's mind.
"Tame Your Manners at K.A.M.P. Safari is a creative and fun way to
introduce kids to the concepts of etiquette that are the foundation
behind most of our manners," said Lizzie Post, author and spokesperson
for The Emily Post Institute.
Author Loretta Neff stated, "Basic social skills are often overlooked
or fortified due to lack of time. By offering educational books, we're
doing a small part to help enrich the lives of children."
Tame Your MannersT at K.A.M.P. Safari can be purchased on
www.ewbooks.org for $12.95. All net proceeds from the book will go to
charity. For more information, please visit:
