| Dr. Jane Aronson at Yale Global Innovations Conference |
What fun would this be!! A toy library for our OVC in Africa. At the Yale Conference we had an opportunity to attend a workshop by Dr. Jane Aronson who founded Worldwide Orphans Foundation. As a pediatrician she is keenly aware of the need for children to learn developmental skills through play. She has established Toy Libraries in Haiti for the children in great need. At this point her children can only check out the toys within a confined room but her vision (and ours) would be to allow children to take toys home. She is using all top quality wood crafted toys -- no plastic.

| Wooden toys for teaching |
We see possibilities for establishing a vocational training program to make wooden toys for the children graduating from our schools in Zambia. A training program, an income generating venture, and TOYS for kids all with the same project. How cool would that be???
