DSC00169 While watching my plastic bag clean up program this child wanted me to see his solution:

A soccer ball made entirely from plastic bag litter. On January 23rd I am taking Notes ‘N Totes from 3rd – 6th graders in America to exchange for letters from the same age kids in Tanzania; setting up a pen pal system for children there who have no access to the internet.

More than 300 children who are passionate about sharing their solutions for environmental issues have already signed on.

I am trying to raise $500 for shipping and drivers costs. Small amounts go a long way and you will get a HUGE thank you from me for a $10 contribution or a $100 one. You can donate by  clicking HERE

ASANTE SANA for any help you can provide.

  1. Sounds like a great initiative, Lori! Starting conversations between kids from different parts of the world is a great way to enrich their cultural understanding. And of course we at Green Global Travel LOVE the environmental focus. Kudos to you for a great concept.
