I think these pictures and the message you are sending through your writing is motivating. Strong, clearly stated thoughts in the educational pledge can awaken ones from their state of denial. We can all benefit no matter where we come from because we are all affected in someway by this sad state of affairs. No brainer! after working hard all day to make ends meet its difficult at times to research resources to help your own. Having a tool like this to use with your child is great!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful project! I wish young people would heed this call to a richer, happier, more fulfilling life.
