It’s refreshing this year that I don’t have any back to school series or giveaways planned for this space. Nada. Sometimes we all need a change, right?
But for those of you in need of a little back to school encouragement and inspiration, I’ve compiled all the back to school posts written here in past years for you to browse and glean ideas from.
Enjoy!

This summer things are different on this blog because things are different for our family! Back to school is nowhere on our radar screen–instead we are battling injustice (and Manila traffic) as we spend the summer working in the Philippines for Love146.
So many of you have partnered with us, and I can’t thank you enough! We are raising funds for an awesome library of books and for the education of child survivors of trafficking and exploitation.
And look what we’ve done so far–we’re 57% of the way there to our goal of paying for an entire year of education costs for the girls who live in the Round Home!
If you haven’t already done so, would your family consider a donation during this back to school time of year, so girls in the Philippines can look forward to a year of learning as well?
Thank you for being so generous!
