About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / Retro music

: The Love Movement is a grassroots non-profit organization. Our Target Group: Perth Amboy Young adults between the ages of 18 to 30. Mission Statement: Our mission is to create "The Cultural Revolution"—a counter culture to the current "culture" of: youth violence, negativity, ignorance, drug abuse/selling, consumerism, materialism, machismo, and hatred/self-hatred. The old culture is being replaced by a new Culture of: positive energy; civic/social/political responsibility and awareness; universal love & respect for the entire human race; and, love of: knowledge, education, and the right to freedom of speech/expression.
