Today, School Spirit Vending's Hassle-Free fundraising program is helping schools in 23 states raise money in it's own unique way.  Aside from fundraising, Matt developed a passion for reading at a very early age by reading comic books he bought at a local 5-and-dime store. With his unique positioning with schools across the country, he decided to start a comic book company, Sticker Swarm Media, in hopes of inspiring today's kids to read like he was inspired 30+ years ago.
Sticker Swarm's 1st comic book series, Marlin & Percy, provides challenging reading and good clean fun for kids and adults alike.
