Helping Others.

Today in class we continued to reflect on what we learned from the movie God Grew Tired of Us. We had to look at alternatives to reflect on because we learned that to have John come to the school would cost way to much money per person. We saw many different option of charities we could give to. One was one about pencils. This charity is about getting money donations from others and building schools in Africa to make them more educated about what they can do with for example all the oil they have. Since countries like the United States are in high demand for oil, Africa's could become more educated and know how they could sell oil or how they could get things to work with the oil they have.Also, we learned about what Toms shoe company is doing to help others. For instance they are taking toms shoes to places all around the world because when you buy a pair of their shoes, they donate another pair to a person in need. I think this is a great organization because from their profit they are doing something for a person who is less fortunate. The last thing we looked into doing was helping children who are born with clef pallet. This is when a child is born without their top lip being attached all they way through so they need surgery so they will be able to suck on a pacifier.
