I bring you this Donors Choose update. I just got an email from Mrs Finkelstein, the Philly kindergarten teacher who asked for help to buy snacks for her hungry class. The snacks arrived this week and the kids cheered when they were brought into the classroom. Now they can do math and not be hungry. I am pushing aside my feelings of sadness that kids are so hungry that bags of potato chips excite them, to focus instead on the wonderful teacher who cares so much for her students that she spends her spare time fundraising to feed them. People who think charity begins at home and that the poor would be fine if only they pulled themselves up by their bootstraps should be stapled to chairs in public school classrooms to observe the impact of their indifference on the next generation of Americans.
