My readers have just funded another project! So what's next? Are Michigan's children all set?
No, not quite. We've funded some great projects, helping out kids with hearing impairments, giving inner city girls a view into a remarkable future, but there's more work to do. I found another project that looks important. The kids in this school can't play outside (!) and need some indoor sports equipment to keep healthy, play, and fight obesity. How 'bout we do this? They need $501.00 to be fully funded (apparently indoor soccer balls are rather expensive).
