Our class had an Art Sale on Wednesday, May 6th. We read the book "The Dot" back in September and it inspired us to have an Art Sale. We knew that we were going to donate the money that we raised but we hadn't decided where we would be sending the money. During Lent we read the book, "Beatrice's Goat". In the story a young girl's life is changed when her family receives the donation of a goat. Having the goat makes Beatrice's dream come true; she finally has enough money to go to school! Shortly after we read the story Father Francis came in to visit our class and tell us a little bit about his village of Kumbo, Cameroon. Father Francis told us that he had seen many lives in his village changed for the better when a family gets the gift of a goat. That was it for us! We decided right then and there to donate the money we raised from the Art Show to buy a goat for a family.
