A life-changing gift

This is inspiring: Dolphin discovery aids Injured Vet and Young Girl

You never know how one good deed will multiply to accomplish things you could have never have hoped to be a part of. While I am glad that the dolphin is doing well, I am even more inspired in how the substance they came up with to hold the prosthetic tail onto the dolphin is now being used to make injured vets lives better. Just awesome.

That being said, this is one amazing humanitarian organization: The Smile Train.

For only $250 you can positively change the life of one child for his or her entire life. It doesn't matter where a child is born in the world, a cleft palette is something that will negatively impact his or her life every day. And it is so inexpensive to fix. Just $250 and that child can have a life where he or she is not ostracized. $250 is less than some of us spend on take out for a month or entertainment.
