Tori boxes

You know by now my favorite organization on the planet is children's cup.  I am so excited to announce their fall project and hope it sparks some excitement in you.  The public schools in Mozambique and Swaziland (the two countries I traveled to) are not free, but for $150 you can send a child to school for an entire year.  This fall Cup is also creating Tori boxes to send the children so they can go back to school ready to learn with the right supplies.  You can create a Tori box with your family. School supplies are at great prices, right now too!!   http://www.childrenscup.org/v2/
