I've been trying to coerce -- I mean push my daughter (13-year-old) to volunteer and get engaged in NFP activities. Thus far though, she is less than enthusiastic. I think I'll show her what your kids did -- who are significantly younger! <br/><br/>I wish that I lived closer because I'd love to make a donation to their Heifer fund. Maybe they can also set up a Heifer registry -- and you can post a link here too? (I could contribute to that!) That is absolutely wonderful.
