Central to Operation Paydirt is the Fundred Dollar Bill Project, a creative campaign advancing public education and community engagement through the creation and collection of Fundreds \u2013 original, hand-drawn interpretations of $100 bills. Fundreds represent the tangible voices of millions speaking to those with the power to end this national problem. The goal is to exchange the value of informed public voice into real resources to leverage 100% prevention.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2006,\u00a0<em>Operation Paydirt\u2019s\u00a0<\/em>initiatives have proven effective in engaging communities in the potential for change.\u00a0This methodology can further underpin the work of the larger lead poisoning prevention movement by developing a\u00a0massive citizen voice. Now, with the support of A Blade of Grass, a foundation that nurtures socially engaged art,\u00a0<em>Operation Paydirt\u00a0<\/em>is offering this creative momentum to support those with the knowledge and power to influence\u00a0change towards lead poisoning prevention. MIT\u2019s Community Innovators Lab (CoLab) is partnering with\u00a0<em>Operation Paydirt\u00a0<\/em>to create the space for a convening of\u00a0campaign partners to co-create communications and movement-building strategies. The partnership with CoLab will\u00a0facilitate the interchange of knowledge and resources between MIT and community networks. Moving forward, Los\u00a0Angeles based Healthy Homes Collaborative is invested as an advising partner. Conversations with lead poisoning\u00a0prevention experts are evolving to further anchor this national dialogue.<\/p>\n<p>See <a title=\"http:\/\/operationpaydirt.org\" href=\"http:\/\/operationpaydirt.org\" target=\"_blank\">operationpaydirt.org<\/a> for the latest information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2006-ongoing Operation Paydirt is an artist-initiated project inviting children, families and communities to imagine, express and actualize a future free of childhood lead-poisoning.
