Faytelina JoLE

So apparently Grace Academy was having a fundraiser to help starving orphans in Nigeria and we didn't hear anything official about it. Fayte would come home and tell us how "babies are starving in Nigeria and we need monies to help them!" We shrugged it off while she collected coins from around the house and saved them in her backpack. We figured we'd receive a letter from school about it.

Well, recently we received a letter only that it said thanks for our help and that the school was able to feed thousands of kids with all of the money they raised. Fayte even received this piece of art made by one of the kids in Nigeria!



We had no idea how much she brought in and were hoping it was more than just the pocket change she had found around the house. That would've been embarrassing. Then while cleaning her room, we noticed that her piggy bank was empty and inside it used to be a good amount of change and even a $50 bill! Well, at least it went to a good cause.
