A lady my that Dad works with went to Cuba. The pencils went to a school for children with special needs. The director was reluctant to take a picture and was overwhelmed with emotions... She cried happy tears. Thank you to everyone who donate to help make this possible.

Good Morning friends! We are packing pencils today and are running low for spring break mission trips and really need donations. Would your company consider donating pencils? Does your school have a club that would do a pencil drive? Please let us know, and thank you to everyone that has assisted in getting over 80,000 pencils to children in 13 countries around the world!
