This afternoon, 5 CPU Betans came to our house and sorted the books in the 3rd BalikBetan Box (sent by Brod Jess B.). The mother of one is a teacher in Sta Barbara Central Elementary school. She is asking for our donations for they also need books. So, we agreed that the elementary books will be given to Santa Barbara Elementary School. In fact these books are there now in the Betans House for delivery within this week. I cannot take back my word to the boys anymore. The books for nursery will be given to the two day care centers for the urban poor in Barangays Simon Ledesma and Maria Cristina. The third set of books are for collegiate level and are kept in reserve for the Betans House library. Brod Jonan, it is said that "do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing." In other words, whether there is media mileage or none, Betans give because we care for the education of the children! Sis Aurora Lim
