This week was actually the SECOND official Early Act meeting, and the focus was on our work with Kiva.org. We read the book Beatrice's Goat by Page McBrier. You can hear the story read in the video below. You can also buy it here: (Amazon Link). (We do not get compensated for sharing this great read.) The book is about the gift of a goat completely changes a little girl's life in a small village in Africa. This is similar to the effect our group can have on people around the world with |
Kiva.org. As the school year goes on, students will be making and selling products in the Early Act store to raise money for Kiva. They will choose loans on Kiva to fund with that money as well as money that has come back to us from groups who have paid us back. Check out our Kiva page here: (link) If you are interested in starting your own personal Kiva account, don't hesitate to contact us. We'd love to have you on our lending team, Red Arrows for Life! |
