DREAM
A Monument inspired by a Movement
The Dream. Inspired by a dream of Dr. Frankl, to bookend the Statue of Liberty in the East with an equally inspiring monument in the West - The Statue of Responsibility.
The Statue. The statue will represent a catalyst for unifying global project to enshrine and share a fundamental value; Responsibility.
“ Freedom is in danger of degenerating into mere arbitrariness unless it is lived in terms of responsibleness. That is why I recommend that the Statue of Liberty on the East Coast be supplemented by a Statue of Responsibility on the West Coast”
Dr. Victor Frankl, a Holocaust survivor and
world-renowned clinical psychiatrist, and author
who wrote a “Mans Search for Meaning”.
Applying responsibility to liberty is vital for carrying the torch of our freedoms and for making our society a better place now and in the future.

Viktor passes away
Stephen R. Covey dies, the torch is passed to Gary Price.
Viktor Frankl and Stephen R. Covey set out to fulfill Viktor’s
vision.
Gary Lee Price chosen to design the Statue of Responsibility
Kevin. Cannon proposes a
For-Profit model and becomes The Statue of Responsibility Chairman of the Board.
Gary and a handful of others visit Ellie Frankl (wife) in
Vienna, she approves the design.
From Idea to Design
"Being asked to create a design
for Dr. Viktor Frankl’s vision of a
‘Statue of Responsibility’ has proven to not
only be a great honor, but one of the greatest highlights of my forty year career as a professional sculptor. In my mind I reasoned that huge word RESPONSIBILITY not only referenced our ‘ability to respond’, but also had to do with assistance and our need to connect with others physically AND spiritually - thus the two clasped hands. It also occurred to me that this ‘monument’ should not only be a simple form, but should reach upward to the skies. I chose a rectangle, hundreds of feet tall, with an unmistakable humanistic form, the handclasp. For me and hopefully others, it represents The ultimate of human connections and coming together."
Gary Lee Price,
“Liberty can only be preserved when
coupled with Responsible action”
Liberty - Responsibility =
Egocentric Behavior & Chaos
Our Mission
Our mission is to establish Responsibility as an integral core value.
Positively and significantly alter societies sense of responsibility by demonstrating that Liberty and Responsibility are inseparable ideals. When aligned, humanity will experience a more cohesive balance within our communities and our daily interactions.
THE MOVEMENT, THE MESSAGE
Liberty and Responsibility are inseparable. Not only is responsibility a necessary condition for a free society to prosper, it will move you to become the best person you can be.
The Responsibility Campus combined with an educational outreach program will inspire others to think responsibly before taking action. It will be a worldwide movement; a solution which has the potential to solve many of the world’s biggest problems.
Responsibility allows for you to cultivate the skills you are best at and then to share these skills with the world. This creates a better society and a meaningful existence. Create a better you. Create a life of meaning and by that process, you will be part of creating a better world.
Upon exiting, patrons will harvest
ideas and receive tools that will renew their commitment to responsible living.

Collaborative Ascent Program
SOR's PLAN
Liberty generated a little over $2.2b in revenue from 63m visitors during years 2000 - 2016.
The accomplished appraiser Richard Roddewig estimates the Statue of Liberty is worth $530m today.
He suggested that if Liberty were operated in a for-profit model it would be worth a whopping $2.068b.
Statue of Responsibility “SOR” operates in a for-profit model. SOR will invite only 110 corporate sponsors to participate in the CAP program. Becoming one of SOR’s CAP members entitles your organization to the following:

SOR to track sales and calculate commissions.
The Legacy Wall will consist of generous donors that desire to leave their mark forever, on a epic and meaningful American landmark like none other in America or for that matter the world.
The Legacy wall will be fortified with a long lasting foundation of concrete, along with the exterior that consists of beautiful rock, wood and carved granite with the proud donor being displayed for everyone to see, generation after generation. This will amount to millions and millions of people over the many years to come, including family generations.
Our design team will oversee this to ensure its long lasting, meaningful beauty comes through in a way that has an endearing look that lasts forever.
The size of the display will vary, depending on the Legacy option chosen by the corporate or personal donor.
This Legacy monument will be stunningly beautiful and represent the best that posterity has to offer.
The interior walls of the 7 buildings surrounding the Statue will be offered to families or businesses to purchase their space (8’ tall X 3,4,5,6,7… feet wide) wherein their logo or family crest will be etched into the granite slab for millions to see in perpetuity.
