"The measure of a civilization is how it treats its weakest members, including the children" Mahatma Gandhi
It's March! Choose To Care(CTC) is prepared to to take its monthly journey to bring goodness to a teacher's classroom. CTC is a nonprofit organization with a mission to provide a brand new pair of shoes for the child in need. Through Donors Choose(donors choose.org), a trusted teacher-founded nonprofit that allows public school teachers nationwide to request funding for their classroom; CTC sponsors a teacher's project, monthly.
This month CTC is heading to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, to answer the 4th grade teacher's request for tennis shoes, to help new students assimilate to life in the USA. She described the ill-fitting shoes that the newcomers, as she called them, wear to school. The shoes she said are inadequate, have ripped soles, full of holes, too tight, some too big, etc.
As usual our very generous and passionate supporters helped to bring this project to life. They are the driving force behind our mission. Thank you for being such a special part of our community. The many problems that arise from poverty may not go away through a brand new pair of shoes but you have helped to open doors for opportunities.
CTC is betting on the children seeing hope and potential in themselves. These journeys continue to warm our hearts. My gratitude for your offering to the children
Please don't forget today attention to the destruction of Mother Earth and do your part, no matter how small, to keep the planet earth nourished. Your involvement matters.
Peace and Gratitude!
