Off to Liberia!

My bags are going to Liberia... my bean bags! I made these for Craft Hope's current project. A school in Liberia wanted some of these to help their kids learn letters, numbers, shapes, and colors. The commercially produced products were too expensive for them, so Craft Hope came to the rescue!

People all over the world are making these. I made mine in honor of Kelley Rae!





I made a bag for my bags, and tomorrow I'll send them off to their first stop in Virginia. From there they will go on to Liberia, to these sweet kids:

If you don't know your history, Liberia recently suffered through some terrible years of war. Many children were left without parents. This project is called Liberia Orphan Education Project. I was happy to help!
