avadI finally got a check in the mail from a piece that sold a while ago. YAY. I hadn't been able to make any donations since early December and I kept reading about such excellent projects. I've been printing them out and taping them to the fridge for motivation... waiting for an opportunity.
I'd been getting amazing letters and little packets in the mail from the volunteers on the projects I did donate to and their updates and pictures make my days.So today, check in hand, I read through the peace corps volunteer projects on the website and contributed my vowed 10% to this one: http://www.peacecorps.gov/contribute/projects/detail.cfm?projdesc=683-071
It wasn't a really big sale, so it wasn't a huge donation but every bit counts so much, and it feels so good to be able to help somehow. These peace corps volunteers are my absolute HEROES. No doubt about it. I wrote back to one who wrote me from Mali, updating me on the schoolhouse he's working on getting built there. SO amazing. I wish he had a livejournal somehow and I could tap into HIS eyes and mind every day for inspiration. *sigh* Hopefully I'll sell another piece soon and add to that donation.
