Spirit of America is a non-profit company founded by Jim Hake that raises money for use by United States forces operating in war zones. SoA has solicited money for Special Forces troops operating in Afghanistan and for the 1st Marine Division in Iraq. The organization claims its funds will help build schools for Iraqi children and support media outlets that advance counterpoint to news presented by local Arab-run outlets.
Spirit of America was launched under the auspices of Cyber Century Forum, whose chairman, Diana Lady Dougan, served as Assistant Secretrary of State from 1982 to 1988 in the administration of President Ronald Reagan. Cyber Century's vice president and general council, Tedson J. Meyers is a former Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission and Chief of Educational Broadcasting Projects (as well as Assistant to the Director) of the Peace Corps. He was appointed to the non-elected Washington D.C. City Council by President Richard M. Nixon in 1972. [http://www.cybercenturyforum.org/leadership/index.html]
