This little boy didn't go to school. I saw him almost every day while I walked the kids to the school in the morning. This particular morning I asked him if I could take his photo. He smiled and said yes.
These children in the photos are in need of many things. If you are interested in helping or would just like more info please leave a comment to that effect and I will get back to you or email me at nedens @ gmail.com (be sure to remove the space before and after the @). Children in the free school can be sponsored for $25 a month which gets them 1 good meal a day (for some the only meal they will eat), a uniform, and school supplies. So as you all take a look at this series please consider helping.
I really appreciate everyones comments. They are a great encouragement to me. Thank you!
