“I just want to THANK YOU on behalf of all our children at Anthony Wayne Middle School in Wane NJ, Mr. Marc Mero, after hearing from some of the kids I just want [Marc] to know [HE] MADE A DIFFERENCE in their lives! [He was] a very touching speaker who brought tears to almost every child listening... thank you [Marc] for your inspiring motivational speech to all.”
“My son came home and told us all how amazing and motivating [Marc’s] presentation was. Thank you! He also offered to play with his “annoying” little brother and gets what my husband and I always tell him; Treat each day as if it is your last.”
“I just wanted to say that [Marc] absolutely changed my perspective on life... I see a lot of my friends treating other people badly. After I heard [Marc’s] words I will stand up to them and not be a follower.”
“[Marc,] thanks so much for coming to our school today, what you said was really inspirational and moving, my uncle died of drug overdose and this was just an extra reminder of the horrible affects from drugs and why you should never do them, thank you!”
“After [Marc’s] presentation I realized I should never take drugs, get drunk and smoke. Even before [his] beautiful presentation I knew I would never but [Marc] made sure that I won’t.”
