(H)Ours Count is an organization founded on the belief that the future can and will be a place in which individuals accept the rewards and consequences of their own choices. It is a place in which each person understands his or her role in successes and in failures, and in those inevitably challenging times, the individual will not be defeated but will be galvanized by the trials to rise and try again. We at (H)Ours Count seek to build strong bodies, minds, and spirits and know that with each individual triumph, the future is brighter for all living creatures. Academic prowess, self-confidence (borne from a healthy mind and body), and social dexterity will supersede the fear-based conflicts so prevalent in our world today. Peace on Earth can occur, one positive choice at a time.
