Dear Friends:
Again, I wish I had better news to report on our project to purchase much-needed desks and chairs for educators in South Africa. Sadly, though, we are in the same position we were in when we completed our last report: $0 raised. While furniture is not an emotionally urgent project, it is important that we raise the money to provide teachers with secure desks and decent chairs to underscore their worth, to protect their students' work and professional correspondence, and to send a strong message to children about the dignity of the teaching profession.
We hope you will consider making a donation to this cause and be willing to spread the word. The teachers in South Africa do an incredible job under what are often the most dire circumstances. We would love to honor them in this way.
Gratefully,
Martha T. Cummings
Universal Promise
