Susanna’s Story
I think this is so amazing, I have to share.
Susanna Tobias is one of my colleagues in the craft industry; she works for CardMaker magazine. Last summer, she traveled to Thailand and Cambodia on a volunteer project, to teach crafts to girls aged 8-15—all of whom had at one point been considered at risk of being sold into prostitution. Yes, sold. As in slavery. Aged 8-15. Just think about that for a minute and try not to get furious.
Susanna was kind enough to share not only her time and energy working with these girls, but also generous enough to share her story here. Take a look at her photos and the newspaper article…
It’s actions like these that make me hopeful in our busy (and sometimes selfish) world. So, thank you Susanna—not only for your generous spirit in helping these girls, but also in sharing your story.
On a totally different note, don’t forget—this weekend is the CKC show in Bellevue, Washington November 5-7. Paulette will be there with tons of fabulous Hot Off The Press goodies. Check out the Creating Keepsakes website for more details and to get your tickets. Hope you can join in!
