Table of Contents


We suggest you begin reading this year-end issue with the last article. You will learn what a good year 2006 was for KIDS and how you can help its growth continue.

            Joan Dye Gussow sets the tone for this issue by explaining what KIDS means to her and why she believes that the program is “more relevant to our world than ever.”       

Lindy Wood of The Atlanta Food Bank, returns to continue her discussion of the importance of introducing people to the subject of food  prior to beginning a discussion of hunger.

Jen Chapin’s article deals with Meditation on Corn. Starting with the discovery that her 14 month old son might “be on to something when he finds the just old kernel stuff OK”, but the “fresh summer stuff” is his favorite. What we learn from him (and his mother) about corn makes for interesting reading.

            Judy Huynh invites us along on her recent study tour of Honduras conducted by Heifer International.  The participants learned much from the people of Honduras about “sharing with others and caring for the Earth.”

            Molly Zeff, a senior at Yale University, spent last summer as an intern at RESULTS. She explains why the elimination of school fees is an important step towards universal education . In addition to the discussion about the topic, it is uplifting to reaffirm that there are young people like Zeff who are dedicated to making a difference in the world.

            Comments are always welcome as is your support
