Treasured gift of pencils...


Breaking news from Matt Waite:  "I wanted to give you an update on the terrific first grade classroom I spoke with last week. I just received handwritten letters, and over 100 pencils that they want to give to their soon to be friends in Zambia. I'm also excited to share with you that although the school
would not let them do a fundraiser the children took it upon themselves to share what they learned with their parents and each did extra chores throughout the week and personally donated all of their
earnings. Between the 18 students they raised $124!"

Wow!!  That everyone should have such tender hearts -- and follow through with intentional and meaningful action!  Thank you so much to an amazing first grade class in St. Louis!!
