As most of you know I am currently in Africa on IA with the United Nations Mission in Liberia, helping to rebuild a war torn country. Well I have become an Uncle! There is an orphanage here with 34 beautiful kids that sing like the angels themselves, and they need help. I go there twice a week to talk with them and help out as much as possible. I also bring old DVDs that I don't need and let them keep them. However, when I asked the kids what they needed most, it wasn't toys, or even clothes (even though they need both); the answer was school supplies. They need basics like pencils and bookbags and writing tablets (among other things like electricity and toilets). If you are intersted in helping email me please at: Bobby.Jones@2001.usna.com. I have attached a picture of me and the kids. All of their parents were killed in the war, yet they are always happy! They cheer ME up...unbelievable.
