America's Promise Alliance is the nation’s largest cross-sector alliance of nonprofit, community organizations and government organization dedicated to improving the lives of young people. The organization was founded on the idea that children and youth need “Five Promises” to thrive—caring adults, safe spaces, a healthy start, effective education, the opportunity to serve—but that not nearly enough young people have access to these basic resources. America’s Promise works to raise awareness about the importance of these resources and inspire actions that help more children and youth receive them; the organization does this by leading national public awareness campaigns, conducting research, hosting events and convening summits, partnering with hundreds of national and community organizations that work directly with youth. America’s Promise is chaired by Alma Powell and was led by her husband and founding chairman, retired Gen. Colin L. Powell; the president and CEO is John S. Gomperts, a former leader of the Corporation for National and Community Service, Encore.org, the Public Education Network.

The Presidents’ Summit for America’s Future in 1997 – a national summit held in Philadelphia to promote a civic response to many of the country’s problems the challenges facing at-risk youth – led to the creation of America’s Promise Alliance. Presidents Bill Clinton and George H. W. Bush convened the summit, Gen. Colin L. Powell, USA served as the event’s general chairman. Focusing on helping the nation’s young people, Gen. Powell agreed to lead a three-year campaign called America’s Promise – The Alliance for Youth, which set out to improve the lives of 2 million of the nation’s 15 million at-risk youth by 2000. In 2000, the target end-date of the campaign, General Powell determined that America’s Promise should continue its work and continue to operate as a nonprofit organization. Ending the work now, he said, would be “kind of like saying we'll be out of Bosnia in a year."Early in its history, America’s Promise drew criticism for not being able to prove it had achieved its goals. A analysis from the National 4-H Council, the nation’s largest youth development organization, agreed that while the organization’s impact was difficult to document, “much of the increased focus on youth and positive youth development…can be attributed to the visibility and funding America’s Promise brought to youth work.”In the years since, the work of America’s Promise has grown to encompass awareness building, academic research, cross-sector collaboration, events that bring people together.

In July 1995, former Michigan Governor George Romney outlined his vision of “a summit at which all living presidents and leaders from all sectors of society would gather to support citizen service and show it was not a partisan issue.” Only four days after completing this outline, Romney died of natural causes. Before his death, Romney shared his vision of this bipartisan summit focused on volunteerism with former U. S. Senator Harris Wofford, who had become CEO of the Corporation for National and Community Service and Bob Goodwin, president of Bush’s Points of Light Foundation. Wofford and Goodwin agreed to enlist their organizations in fulfilling Romney’s plans for the summit, so Romney “died knowing that the summit would go forward.”In his 1997 State of the Union address, President Bill Clinton laid out the overarching theme and goal of the summit: "to mobilize America's citizen power in a united effort to solve our common problems those that threaten our young people." Three months Presidents Clinton and George H. W. Bush co-convened the Presidents’ Summit for America’s Future in Philadelphia.

Retired Gen. Colin Powell served as the chairman of the event, four out of the five living presidents attended, with Nancy Reagan representing her husband Ronald Reagan. More than 20 governors, nearly 100 mayors, 145 community delegations, many prominent business leaders and celebrities attended the summit. With the official slogan, “Two Million by 2000,” the summit encouraged business, government and community leaders across the country to work together to improve the lives of 2 million of the nation’s 15 million at-risk youth by 2000. In 1998, Gen. Powell responded to criticism that the summit and ensuing America’s Promise campaign were little more than symbolic gestures and reported that, as a result of the summit, among other things, Big Brothers and Big Sisters amassed a 22 percent increase in adults enlisting as mentors. S Chamber of Commerce committed to helping 3 million young people find summer jobs. Gen. Colin L. Powell, USA served as the founding chair of America’s Promise and remained board chair until 2001, when he stepped down to become U.

S. Secretary of State. Former governor of Montana Marc Racicot took over as chair, followed by former U. S. Senator Harris Wofford in 2002. Alma Powell, a respected audiologist and General Powell’s wife, became chair in 2004, she published two children's books in America's Promise and My Little Wagon. In 2004, America’s Promise – The Alliance for Youth changed its name to America’s Promise Alliance to place a greater emphasis on the strength of Alliance partners. "We see ourselves as a convener, a catalyst for action, we help our partners and communities that focus on the measurable goals," said then-CEO Marguerite Kondracke. Kondracke retired as pre

The Division of Bendigo is an Australian electoral division in the state of Victoria. The division was proclaimed in 1900, was one of the original 65 divisions to be contested at the first federal election, it is named for the city of Bendigo. The division is situated on the northern foothills of the Great Dividing Range in North Central Victoria, it covers an area of 5,496 square kilometres and provides the southern gateway to the Murray–Darling basin. In addition to the city of Bendigo, other large population centres in the division include Castlemaine, Heathcote and Woodend; the current Member for the Division of Bendigo, since the 2013 federal election, is Lisa Chesters, a member of the Australian Labor Party. In the early years of federation the seat consisted of little more than Bendigo itself, but on boundaries the seat has included towns such as Echuca, Castlemaine and Seymour. Bendigo has been a marginal seat, changing hands between the Labor Party and the conservative parties. However, it has remained a Labor seat since the 1998 federal election.

Unlike most marginal seats, Bendigo is not a barometer for winning government. Since 1949, all but one of its members has spent at least one term in opposition. Indeed, during two elections that saw a change of government, it elected an opposition MP, its most notable members have been its first representative, Sir John Quick, a leading federalist, Prime Minister Billy Hughes who, although from Sydney, represented Bendigo for two terms at a time when the federal Parliament met in Melbourne, who moved to the seat after leaving the Labor Party over conscription, holding the seat as the leader of the Nationalist Party. John Brumby, who held the seat from 1983 to 1990 became Premier of Victoria. Brumby was defeated in Bendigo at the 1990 election by a former state Legislative Councillor, Bruce Reid, who retained the seat narrowly in 1993 and 1996, before retiring at the 1998 election, when a 4.3% swing delivered the seat to Labor's Steve Gibbons. Reid has a minor claim to fame through being the third candidate in the contest for Liberal leadership between John Hewson and John Howard after the party's 1993 election defeat.

Reid attracted one vote his own. Division of Bendigo - Australian Electoral Commission
