Many thanks to all who gave away their books. Rest assured, they traveled a long way to the Philippines--and then a treacherous way by air, by sea, and by bus to very remote ARMM region in Mindanao.
The following post is a letter from Synergeia's Trissa Manalastas, relaying the good news of their safe and welcome arrival to the schools.
Here is our biggest reward: the biggest smiles of the kids, browsing our books--for class, for story-telling sessions, for recreational reading.

Wonderful! Wonderful!
I plan to put a book box together by June. Let me know if I can pick-up any more children's books from your generous families.
God Bless your generous hearts always!
