So....how do we start?

After all, sending one box of crayons is better than not sending any, right?

Welcome to the blogging world. Always remember and stay focused on the passion that brought you here in the first place.

Hi Laura, what a calling you have! I also sense that literacy is tightly connected to poverty. When I see the failure rates in our city high schools and the amount of poverty in the inner cities right here in our own nation, you know it is true as well.

I'll be stopping back to see where this passion takes you and how you go about addressing it.

Hey Laura. Great dream! Thanks for sharing and inviting us to join and assist your vision and mission. What can we do to help? Stay contagious!

Laura Hecht

Drew,
Thanks to you, we have already started. We continually discuss it and bring others together to support a common goal - eradicating illiteracy through awareness and passion. I am always looking for resources, individuals, and groups to support me in advice, materials to send or by financial means. I hit the pavement hard before school started and have been collecting unwanted supplies from schools.
Thanks for your comment and encouragement. Any advice or help - I am happy to receive it.
Laura

Robyn,
Thanks for the encouragement. I appreciate your comments and support. Please check back regularly as I continually am advocating for the poverty-stricken in my daily work.

Have you talked to Sharon Peters? I think she talked about her trip on a recent WOW2.0 show, but I don't think they posted the recording yet. She is on twitter as well, @speters i think you should talk to her!

Laura Hecht

mrsdurff,
Thanks for the suggestion. I will be looking for the WOW2.0 show as well as twittering her. Working together gets things accomplished - Thanks for my next step toward my dream!

Drew McLellan

Laura,

I think it starts with you telling the world what it is you need. Or ask for connections.

For example, I have a friend who is helping his church build an orphanage in Africa. Maybe they'd be a good partner. Or perhaps you want to create a site where you partner with an office supply company and they sell stuff for cost?

I think we need some direction from you. It's your dream -- how do you want it to manifest itself?

Do you want the DSM bloggers to adopt a village? Do you want to organize a group of teachers to make it their class project?

You create the vision and let us help you build to it.

Laura Hecht

Rushay,
From one who lives with the lack of educational excellence, I can only imagine the frustration you feel on a daily basis. Thanks for the response. It means a lot from someone who lives in Africa!!! I checked out your pictures. Great job yourself.
My best,
Laura

Possibly God desires us to satisfy a couple of unsuitable folks prior to assembly the fitting a single in order that after we last but not least connect the correct man or woman, we'll know the right way to be thankful for that reward.

Le vrai Lauren Booth peut être vu jaillir sa bouche faute sur bnptube sur youtube! Elle utilise la haine musulmane pour son propre gain politique, Lauren vous êtes à deux faces et un traître, vous devriez avoir honte de vous-même le même que Tony et Gordan .. Lorsque vous avez terminé la distribution jusqu'à plus de haine pour le Royaume-Uni par les fondamentalistes islamiques, vous pouvez alors pincement plus à votre belle maison en dévers France vous?

Have you ever had a topic to write about that seems too big to tackle that you can’t even begin to write about it? Well, welcome to my world. I need to send educational supplies to Africa. I know! You have so many questions racing through your head right about now. Let’s just say – all of your questions will be answered in due time. For now, listen to my heart and my passion
