How it Started

Peace on earth,
By Alaina

My name is Alaina and I am 9 years old. I went with my Mom on Sept. 27th to listen to Sally Armstrong . She told stories about the terrible things that happen to little girls in Afghanistan. I was so moved. I never knew about how terrible the little girls were treated. I couldn't believe there were little girls in Afghanistan that didn't get treated like me and my friends. I could picture in my head a place where there were kids like me but instead of happiness it was pain. I asked Sally at the end if there was ever peace in Afghanistan and she said sometimes the Country was peaceful, but if we all worked together we could educate people and build a better place. On the way home with my Mom, my Mom said she was grateful to have the ability to drive and show her face without a veil. We don't know how lucky we are. After she said that, this idea popped into my head. Sally said, the worse thing we can do is not do anything. I want to make a difference. I want to do something- even if it's small, at least I made a difference. I am going to raise $750.00 to pay for 1 year of a teacher's work to educate girls like me. I am calling myself "little women for little women". I am going to make a bridge of peace.

Sincerely,
Alaina
