It is important that material has independent verifiable sources to verify what is being claimed and to show that it meets the notability guidelines. Your article has no independent references, and no wikilinks to other article. The only links are to the sites you are promoting, and they are in the text, whereas they should be external links.


 * not-for-profit 501(c)(3) corporation &mdash; explain or link, we are not all Americans
 * receives funding from a variety of different sources, including United Way, government grants, Local Management Entities, and private and corporate gifts. &mdash; needs a reference and a figure to show notability
 * Winston-Salem, North Carolina better than assuming we all know what NC is, and links to article
 * One of the largest providers of school-based prevention services in North Carolina. &mdash; needs an independent reference
 * Unlimited Success “builds a better future one kid at a time.”  spam
 *  Serving 46 counties. needs a reference
 * The Media Campaign reaches tens of thousands of North Carolinians &mdash; needs an independent reference
 * The list of media activities is just promotion, their is no evidence given to support any of this. I assume the media ignore it since there are no links to media reports
 *  to recognize its service to tens of thousands of residents in multiple counties in Western and Central North Carolina. again, just a figure plucked from the air
