Default Re: what's the best?

at my office, we have "adopted" a small public school...this is the best way - for us - to contribute and KNOW where our money is going...we also contribute time, as we teach English to the top 10% students in the higher classes...(I contribute time, as I don't have much $$$, but some people contribute both...) This weekend, we went and painted the outside of the school...our VP donated paint so that the students can come and paint the inside...it looked soooo different when we left...it really makes me happy!...and, I got to take my daughter (who's 5) with me...and she actually helped!!!...I want her to know that she (everyone, really) CAN make a difference...
