The Global Write-a-thon

'Write a letter, Save a Life'

was a success! A very uplifting couple of hours full of hope…We had 22 people, included some new friends; we wrote 100+ letters and more than 60 holiday cards to prisoners to let them know that they are not forgotten.

Thank you all and keep the flame burning…

Thank you all who joined us and generously contributed!
