Michael Phelps
Published on 24 Feb 2009 Return to view other stories“We, at the American Students’ Fund, were saddened by the recent news surrounding our national honorary board member, Michael Phelps. While we in no way condone his actions , we feel that this behavior does not define the sum of an individual’s overall character; nor does it negate the positive role model Mr. Phelps has been in inspiring young people to achieve their individual goals and dreams. We are all human and we all make mistakes. We appreciate Mr. Phelps’ prompt apology to his supporters and fans and are confident that in the future he will continue to be a positive role model for the youth of our country.”
