Be a Pen Pal

The idea behind BAPP is to get kids in the USA to send a care a package to kids at Mother Of Peace Orphanage containing paper, pencils, crayons, chalk, and disposable cameras. They would also send letters telling the kids at MOP who they are and what they do. The photos taken from the disposable cameras will be printed and exhibited to raise money by print sales. It has worked for a number of different organizations that we've found and we're confident it will work for us.

These orphanages have done the same thing and it has been very very successful!! We could even take it a step further and have both sides of the Pen Pal group take and exchange pictures. A group show between both USA and Zim kids would be something new and extremely educational.

Kids need to be aware of what's happening in the world. This is a way to get them involved and educated and hopefully instill in them at an early age what are important things to think about. BAPP right now is just an idea. We are still trying to get it up and running. Any ideas would greatly help.
