A simple backpack filled with school supplies is enough to make a child's year in Africa! What a difference such a small thing can make. If you would like to help, please let me know by responding to this blog. You can either purchase the items yourself or make a donation and we will purchase the items for you. If you know of anyone else that would like to get involved, please forward this to them. Thanks so much!

crayons
pencils
large lined notebook
round tipped scissors
glue stick (not liquid glue)

You can also add items such as:

With the school year just starting, these items are so cheap right now at various stores such as Wal Mart, Target, Dollar General, Dollar Tree and Big Lots. You can really get a lot for your money! Make it a fun project to do with your kids, and teachers....this would be a great class project. Just think of the lessons you can teach with this! Anything that you can do is so appreciated!!
