The voices of happy children very alive in spirit were a pleasant sound to my ears as we drove onto the compound of the school to Bas Vaudrueil. Two years ago when I came, the children's eyes were dull and there was a lack of liveliness within them. They were hungry. In fact, as we drove off that day they clamored the truck telling me that they were hungry. Now, two years later, these same kids sang songs of thanks as they were served their meal that they can now count on through Childcare Worldwide's School Feeding Program.
One girl that I had met in 2007 was a girl by the name of Frecita. When I met her, her eyes said it all. Now, two years later..., her eyes sparkle and she is 'alive' per se. She has a never-ending smile on her face and she loves to help her teacher by passing out the food to her classmates.
