Marshall Mend and Ty Beaver talked about their idea of raising money for human rights activities at the Human Rights Institute in Coeur d’Alene on Tuesday. Mend struck a deal with New York City-based Raoul Wallenberg Institute to sell a diversity curriculum the institute produces called A Study of Heroes. He is setting up a nonprofit organization to sell the curriculum to school districts and other organizations nationwide with a share of the money going to the Human Rights Institute in Coeur d’Alene.
