Ginny, when you post a call to action post like this, I don’t even get to the end of the post before I’m pulling out my wallet. This, and the Make Room for Kids? YES. Excellent causes I can get behind.

Thank you for posting this. My husband and I are happily donating the funds to sponsor a child. Ali and Jamie do amazing work so please keep blogging about them and the children they are helping!

Just gave $180 to help out. I am a sucker for Pittsburghers doing good deeds :)

What a great organization. I sponored one on my own, but now I think I need to show this to my boys (8 and 6), and I want to talk with them about this and see if they want to donate too (I’ll help them out, but I think it would be good for them to sacrifice some). It will remind them how blessed they are.

Lin’s idea is a great one. I sent this out to the coordinator and elective teachers in our AVID program (my baby of 5 years) asking if it could be a service project for the kids. If each of our staff donated $10, we could sponser 2-3 kids. If each of the AVID kids donates $2-3, we could sponser another. I hope it works!
