Children are one of our nation’s most valuable resources. Today’s children are tomorrow’s leaders – civic, business and social. Alarmingly, approximately 13 million America children live in poverty. Studies reveal that growing up in poverty can have an adverse psychological impact on a child. One of the adverse impacts is low self-esteem – a by-product of little or no hope for the future.
Each child has a choice of two paths to the future. One path leads to a productive life as an asset to the community. The other path leads to a life of dependency on the community for support. Without outside help, the path of least resistance is too often the path to a life of dependency.

I've already donated 1 toy for a girl - 1 toy for a boy.
I know times are hard, but imagine how hard they are for children with NOTHING!
The toy doesn't have to be expensive - Go to the $1 store.
Whatever you do, please find a child to give to.
Thank you,
Natalya
