On Friday, our whole school viewed a video of the school supplies that we collected last year arriving at the school in Zimbabwe. The video sparked a wonderful discussion in the third grade classroom (where I was viewing) about thankfulness.
Thank you to all who donated books, school supplies and other usable items. I want to express our appreciation to one of our parents, Sipho Gumbo, who received the mounds of donations, packed them, and arranged for shipping. Sipho is the director of Munhu,Inc., a non-profit organization, which supports children in Zimbabwe by supplying tuition and necessities so they can attend school. We are privileged to work hand and hand with her in an effort to teach our children the importance of giving back through the outreach of Rachel's Challenge acts of kindness.

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
