wanted to share this (not h&f related)

So over on my local non-nest board, theres a regular who is a teacher here in nj. Earlier this school year, she had her class (5th grade, i think) randomly pick one school in each state to write letters to. One of those schools was briarwood elementary in moore, ok. She had just received letters back the week before the tornado hit.

Being totally moved and shocked, she tracked down (on fb) the teacher whose class they wrote to about what can be done to help. About half the students lost their homes.

So...they put together this amazon wishlist and i thought id share

Me too. I sent a bunch of things. Oh and these are things for the kidspersonally, not just the school. The high priority things are things some of them specifically asked for. Its heartbreaking.

I see there are 10 kids wanting the Nintendo DS. I wish I could just drop $1650 ($165 x 10) because I'm actually hesitant to buy 1 with 9 still wanting one.
