For thousands of children, we have put pencils in their hands, notebooks on their desks, shoes on their feet, uniforms over their shoulders, school bags on their backs and in some cases, food in their stomachs. For dozens of teachers, we have put chalk in their hands, resources in their classrooms and books in their libraries. For dozens of youth, we have paid for their tuition, their transportation, their books and their nourishment. For dozens of women, we have provided positive alternatives, educational activities for their children, and more promising employment opportunities. More importantly for all of these recipients, we have put smiles on their faces, hope in their hearts and visions of equality, peace and ambition in their minds. |
