We Got Our Bus!
We got our bus! Thank you to everyone who donated. We were able to raise the $7500 necessary to get the matching funds from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
Can I just say how wonderful and amazing the film is so far!?!?! I'm sure this trip has already exceeded your expectations in so many ways. I hope that you're having a great time and I can't wait to hear all about it from you two and the kids! I know that it's a ton of work, but I have to say, it's the most worthwhile work you could possibly be doing. Congratulations to Bintz and Harris and to every student on that trip. You accomplished it together and I know you will cherish this experience forever!
ReplyDeleteI just want to echo the above comment from HappyKarima.. great job folks! I stumbled across The Pass It On Project from the link on the Four & Twenty Blackbird site. Now I have to go try one of their pies as thanks for turning me on to such a worthwhile project. A cousin of mine, originally from Brooklyn, but now from Louisville, KY. spent many years of his life in SNCC supporting the Civil Rights movement. Of course I have sent him the links to The Pass It On Project as well. Please post any information you might have on viewing the entire documentary..can't wait to see it.
