So. Andrea and I have been getting a lot of E-mails from a lot of different people asking for a lot of different things.  It’s actually pretty neat.  It seems people might trust us enough to spread the word, and have a little compassion for this stuff.

Even at exits on the highway, or outside of wal-mart, I end up giving to that ‘good cause’ or that guy that needs a sandwich.  Say what you will, I have good faith that that 3 dollars might be the 3 dollars he needed to restore his faith in humanity.

So, you guys may or may not have heard of Shaun King. Well, if you do know him, you know he sometimes makes insanely crazy promises.  He’s done it again.  And I support him.  I’ve come to realize where he is coming from, and perhaps he can explain it better than me.  But, there is something to be said about the insane.  Shaun is insane.  And there is something to be said about him.  I’ll let you draw your own conclusions to that. Again, I digress.

http://www.500uniforms.org is his newest promise.  It’s a promise we can all support. ESPECIALLY if you live in or around the Atlanta area.  Over 98% of the students at Bethune Elementary School are below the national poverty level.  These kids are sharp, intelligent kids who want to learn.

And the blessing is that you have an opportunity TODAY to be a bright spot in the lives of these children. This Christmas, we want every single child (about 500 students) in this school to have a NEW SCHOOL UNIFORM and a FUN TOY to call their own. If YOU don’t help, many of these kids simply won’t receive anything at all this Christmas, but we believe that God is going to use you to be a blessing to these beautiful children.

Anything you can give!  Anything.  Even if it is forwarding this Site in E-mail form to 35 people.  Even if it is reposting this Blog on your blog.  Even if it’s 5 bucks.  Every single time helps.  We WILL roll pennies.  If you have a jar of pennies to give.  (Shaun, that’s my promise)

So.. yeah.  I’m begging again, but this time, on behalf of 500 kids who won’t have a Christmas if we don’t do something.  Leave a comment if you want, and you donated.  I may have something special for you…..
