Our program gives these students the courage, and drive to achieve more for themselves."Goals For Life first matches an athlete with at-risk students. As Berry is also President of the National Football League Players Association, L.A Chapter, he is able to enlist other retired players to volunteer their services.
Students, aided by the athlete, identify obtainable goals and what factors may prevent them from being reached. A game plan is then implemented with individual steps with accountability so the goals may be achieved.The Goals For Life also help schools; communities, families and peers support the student with this program."When Reggie Berry addressed the City of Garden Grove Community Foundation he had great ideas to share with young people, and we were impressed with the way he delivered them," states Bruce A Broadwater, Mayor of Garden Grove. "From the feedback we received through the school district the kids really enjoyed him. Reggie didn't speak above them, but to them. He understands the kinds of pressures they confront every day, and teaches them ways to overcome these obstacles and to feel proud of themselves," adds Broadwater.
"Yogi Berra quipped, "If you don't know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else." At Goals For Life we are dedicated to help at-risk students identify a destination and then assist with the travel plans," concludes Berry.For Reggie Berry's speaking availability please contact Keith Hunt 909 987 1233 or email e-mail protected from spam botsAbout Reggie BerryReggie Berry is Executive Director of Goals For Life, President of the National Football League Player Association, L.A.

Secured Loan
Your loan, if supported by strong assets, is called a secured loan. A secured loan can be called a minimal risk loan. This means negligible risk for the moneylender. The degree of risk taken up by the lender is considerably lower, as in the event of non-payment the assets can be attached.
In legal parlance, a secured loan is a loan wherein the borrower pledges collateral that he/she will forfeit in the event that he/she cannot pay back the loan. In a secured loan the property of the borrower acts as a security, which in effect balances the risk associated with the lending process.
