What Meeting Planners are saying:

"What impressed me most was Mr. Robinson's delivery and style which immediately captures the attention of young people. As an educator, i am fully aware of the necessity of the charismatic delivery of information which young people seem to need to remain attentive. Mr. Robinson possesses these necessary qualities which in turn causes students (particular minority) to respond enthusiastically to his message. God bless you, Mr. Robinson! "
