We are having a little ol' penny drive in February at Art with B. Calvert. It has been a super huge blessing to me so far! Kids have been carting in their loose change. Some have been bringing in dollars. Some have been buying my art that I had for sale to hope further the Penny Drive giving.
There is only this week left to give.
The money will go towards getting a Diabetic Aid Dog (D.A.D.) for my niece, Gloria, who is a type 1 diabetic. They need to raise $2500.00 to get this dog. He will have been trained to smell her breath to tell if her blood sugar level is low or not. Pretty amazing, right? This would greatly help her parents (my brother and his lovely wife, Angela) and be another watchful eye on her. Especially in the nighttime when everyone is asleep!
I am excited to report next week to you all how much was raised. I absolutely love showing the kids that with their two cents, coming together, we really can make a difference in someone else's life!
In other news, I am excited to show you all pictures of the clay we made this past week! yahoo! Pics to come....
