Whether you like sports or not, everyone can be an M.V.P. (Most Valuable Person) in life. It doesn't matter how fast you can run, how many points you score, or how fast you can throw a ball, and it doesn't matter if you don't like sports at all! What's most important is that you try to be the best person you can be every day. That's what David Lee Morgan, Jr., the founder of the M.V.P. Program, learned during his collegiate days at Youngstown State University.
What David learned during his time at YSU was that before you could be a success in sports, you had to be a success within yourself--in your life every day. He learned that caring about those around you would help you feel better about yourself and, in turn, would make other people feel good about themselves. "Pay it Forward," is his philosophy.
With his M.V.P. Youth Character and Literacy Program, David Lee Morgan, Jr. uses this philosophy, as well as his own personal experiences throughout his life, to engage students in lively, fun and interesting discussions along with quick reading and writing exercises to improve those important skills.
The goal of the M.V.P. Program is to get students to understand that being a winner in life doesn't always mean winning on the playing field. The M.V.P. program is about understanding that if you can improve your reading and writing skills while at the same time improving your character, you can become a winner in the game of lie, every day of your life!
