I give because I believe in early childhood education and suppoting families. The cost is so little yet the opportunity to go to school makes a huge difference in a young child's life. I give because my children have been blessed with a good school-safety, care, developmentally appropriate practices. I want this for others - Rachel Sciretti
Yes, I am passionate about early childhood eduation, and yes, I believe that the young children in Ghana need it as much as our own do. Why Ghana? 1) because it is Christiana's lifelong dream and call, and it is a privilege and a blessing to be a small part of that 2) because the resources there are so scarce compared to the resources here. 3) Matthew 25 - Jo Pendleton
This opportunity is unique because we are connected through a friend, Christiana, rather than a big agency. In helping feed and educate a child in Ghana, we are embracing a sense of God's global extended family. - Chris and Katie Brennan Homiak
I believe in the power of education and educational opportunity for all people. Such opportunities seem to have an even greater impact when they come in a caring environment and when they begin early in life. Those things are important for Shalom Children's Center, and so I am glad to support the center. It does important work with "the least of these." - Bill Bellinger
We give to Shalom because of the clarity and purity of Christiana's mission to provide high-quality education for the children of her village. The world at large doesn't know about Twifu or Shalom, and if the children of that place are to receive an education, it will have to be because of people like Christiana and her co-workers. We're happy to play a small role in that undertaking. - Becca Sharpless and Tom Charlton
We got involved because Christiana had a passion for the school. We stay involved because a modest gift can make a difference. - Kathy Gardner
