Our traveling correspondent Jef Mindrup just sent this one from the Tamil region of India:

" One of our drop-off locations was a polio clinic and a young man named Anand received a chair about four months ago. Before that time, Anand cared nothing about studying. He told my translator that he could only drag his books along the ground, because he had no way to carry them. 'No one will hire a smart mind in dirty clothing' were his words. His highest ambition had been to become a fruit vendor and make only enough to scrape by. Now he has hope for education and a better future. He's set his path to study hard and become an electrical engineer. His glorious smile is evidence that his whole outlook on life has been changed."

Millions are out there in dirty clothing, waiting their chance for a better life.

God bless,

Don
