FLORIDA WOMAN FORMS ALLIANCE with
AMERICAN ASSOCIATION FOR LOST CHILDREN

January 2 , 2007 ( Boca Raton, FL) - - - During this upcoming new year, millions of children will celebrate joyous times with their loved ones. Thanks to Mark Miller, more than one hundred of them will do that in their own beds rather than on the run.

Mark Miller is the founder of American Association for Lost Children (AAFLC).

Sherry Thomas, actress, television producer and President of Breathless Video Productions, LLC has formed an alliance with Mark Miller.

Thomas, who recently started her own television production company (www.breathlessvideo.com), prayed that her company could be used to better others, especially children. Her prayer was answered when Mark Miller contacted her. Miller, who gave up corporate America to locate and recover missing and kidnapped children, has reunited 110 kids with their families.

“One day, out of the blue, I received an email from Mark. We have a common love and interest for children and their welfare. What ensued is a beautiful friendship.”

Thomas decided to help Miller’s efforts. She started by soliciting the services of her webmaster. He donated his time to revamping the website. That is step one. Step two is a public awareness campaign through media and fundraisers. At present, whenever Goodsearch is used as web a search engine, AAFLC will receive one penny for each time Goodsearch is used to surf the web. By typing in American Association for Lost Children after the question “Who do you Goodsearch for?”, the monies default to the charity.

“Our idea is to make the website more functional and accessible for kids who are lost or have been taken, as well as provide updates from family members and wonderfully nosy neighbors,” says Thomas.

Slated for the end of January 2008, it will provide areas for parents, family members, or tipsters to upload photos and provide a means to leave a message, anonymously protected, that might lead to a recovery. “We are reaching out to the public to come forward and let AAFLC help.”

Miller says, “The day my phone stops ringing will be a joyous one. For the time being, however, there are many kids missing and somewhere, someone knows something. Don’t be afraid to step forward and solicit help, advice, or give us tips. That’s why we’re here. We will fly anytime, anywhere to find a child.”

“Mark is an amazing man. He has been harassed by government officials in foreign countries, has slept on barren floors, and has had his car repossessed, all in the name of finding missing children. Mark believes that children deserve more than their faces on milk cartons and leaflets being distributed. While those are wonderful tools, the devil is in the details. That’s what he does,” said Thomas.

“All we care about is the end result – the happy reunion of a child with their loved ones”, says Mark. “It’s all in day’s work. My job is a happy one. How many people can say that they truly love what they do? I cherish each morning and with each new recovery, I smile and thank God.”

What’s next? “Well, Mark is close to another recovery and this will ‘Mark’--- pardon the pun---well over his 100 th. There has been some television network buzz about chronicling his life and work, but in all honesty, all he cares about is bringing these kids home,” states Sherry.

In the interim, Thomas points out, “I try to impress upon my two boys the sense of philanthropy . . . and goodness . . . and giving back. Mark Miller is one of the most special individuals I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. He is incredibly humble and unassuming. I use him as a role model and example to my kids .”
