How did Winners for Life get started?

In 1996, Donny Anderson and retired teacher Linkie Seltzer Cohn wrote a book titled Winners For Life to teach teens the importance of setting goals to achieve their dreams. The WFL Foundation came to life after the publishing of Winners for Life. The WFL Foundation is a 501©(3) not-for-profit organization that provides scholarships to ‘at-risk’ youth. Just as you have a personal and corporate mission, it is WFL’s mission to offer "‘at-risk"’ teens a way to take charge of their lives. Winners for Life Foundation provides 50 scholarships to students across the United States each year.
