The kids asked me more questions than I could have ever imagined. They were so interested and thought really hard about trying to make things better for them. The letters these 2nd graders wrote brought tears to my eyes.
The teacher told me that the principle in interested in me going to all the classes and talking to them as well.
I'm so excited.
One girl is making a friendship bracelet so that the girl I sponsor knows she has "friends" on the other side of the world.

JCOSTER said:I am definately going to be talking to the remaining 11 classes about extreme poverty and what they can do to get involved. The school is either going to sponsor a child so that classes can see the way things develop for the child or do fund raising and raise money to send for clothing, school books, etc.
In total when I'm done I will have reached 300 kids! I am so excited so please say a prayer for me that this goes well!
I'm also trying to introduce the ONE for the reason that if a child can't donate money they can have their parent sign them up for ONE or the parent can.

I am praying for you JC I think that you are doing a wonderful thing.
ray: ONE
This is the most beautiful thing you could do . Maybe you could start a program in other schools as well.What a wonderful way to raise awareness in children at such a young age. You are a very compassionate person to take this on. Good Luck to you. All my prayers are with you.JCOSTER said:I am definately going to be talking to the remaining 11 classes about extreme poverty and what they can do to get involved.
