Hello, can you imagine going to
school each day with no writing utensils like pens and pencils? Many children in
Jamaica experience this on a daily basis because their parent(s) cannot afford
to purchase these basic items. Mr. Peter Lewis remember this all to well when he
was attending school in Jamaica. His parents were so poor that they would cut
one pencil into three pieces so that he and his siblings would have something to
write with! He remembered when his Mom tied a string around his little pencil
and attached it to pants so that he wouldn't loose it!
Now
is he on a mission to help the schools in Jamaica by collecting pen, pencils,
erasers, pencil sharpeners, highlighters and electric pencil sharpeners! He
will accept new and used pencils!
Please help him
send these items to the schools in Jamaica, near the end of August! If you would
like to participate in collecting these items please contact me at bcook829@gmail.com
