i think i'm in love


more than lovely words,

GYB
(Got Your Back)
is an organization to

RESTORE PURPOSE
GIVE HOPE
and
SHOW LOVE

by providing school uniforms to
children in poor places who
wouldn't otherwise be able to attend.

All I had to do to provide
one uniform so a child may attend school
was buy a shirt.

That's it.


this is the one i chose - love it

Shirt for shirt, they're changing lives.

It may be a small gesture,
but suddenly we can be part of
a conspiracy of love.

How lovely is that?

Peace to you right where you are.

  1. Aww, Michele, you have officially stolen my heart! I'm originally from Kenya (spent my first two decades there) and I've seen that heartbreaking poverty... it's so wonderful to know people who make a difference in their own little way.

    I hope your macarons turned out well and you had a lovely little reunion with your hubby :)
