~Pennies for Peace~




Our Earth Scouts group spent a couple months collecting pennies for the Pennies for Peace organization. The girls had fun collecting their pennies! They found some in the car, in the house and even on the street! Dave took a jug to work and some of the guys gave their pennies so it was nice of them to help the girls out. A couple weeks ago all the kids in the group brought in the pennies they'd collected and we had a total of $176.11!! This money will make it possible for six children in Pakistan or Afghanistan to attend school for one year. Amazing what a penny can do!!!
