Last month we visited a Rural Primary School and spent some time playing with the kids. They made a deep impression on us and Graham and I collected money from the group to purchase supplies for the school. It is amazing here how much difference a little money makes. We were able to buy 300 notebooks, 300 pencils, 2 footballs, 1 basketball, some comic books, as well as some world maps and posters for their classrooms. I am sure that the children will be very grateful and we are all happy to help give back to the local community. This afternoon we presented the supplies to a representative from the village and he was very thankful. Hopefully the supplies will help inspire some of the kids to study hard in school and bring a smile to their faces.
