Sanad’s mother reads to him in Jordan as part of an effort called Drive to Read (DTR). Funded by USAID for three years, the program aimed to foster a love for reading and build a reading culture among the children of Jordan. DTR is a mobile library which takes educational and cultural activities into East Amman and Zarqa neighborhoods, where large concentrations of disadvantaged people live. Each bookmobile – one in East Amman and another one in Zarqa – is equipped with over 2,000 Arabic- and English-language books and acts as a magnet for families in search of interesting and fun activities to do.

if you're hemming and hawing over where to put your wedding money, just remember this picture if you're considering selling the farm for things like wedding programs...
if you're opting not to make your own invitations, one piece of advice i found was to get one fancy set for a keepsake [if you ask, some folks will do the proof in the fancy stuff], then do the rest in a more cost-effective manner. eg. get one letterpressed or engraved invitation and have the rest thermographed or flat printed. the (approximate) 50% savings are staggering and just as nice.
we designed our programs, had them printed up at the local print shop, then gathered a trusty sweatshop to assemble them. i think the total cost of printing and cutting 100 programs in half was around... $8? i checked out a DIY wedding website for ideas on how to do them, and if i remember correctly, they were charging around $2.50 per program--the package included the two pieces of fancy paper with the program info on them and a wood stick to glue in the middle, but you still had to assemble them yourself.
pretty much, no matter how gorgeous the majority of paper goods you cash out on may be, they're going to end up in the recycle bin.

The Fall 2010 Student Hackathon brought in hundreds of students from 30 universities to NYU's Courant Institute for 24 hours of creative hacking on New York City startups' APIs.
Selected startups presented their technologies at the beginning of the event, and students formed groups to brainstorm and begin coding on their ideas. Many students worked into the night, foregoing sleep to fulfill their visions.
On Sunday afternoon students presented their projects to an audience including a judging panel, which selected the final winners.
hackNY hosts hackathons one each semester, as well as a Summer Fellows Program, which pairs quantitative and computational students with startups which can demonstrate a strong mentoring environment, a problem for a student to work on, a person to mentor them, and a place for them to work. Startups selected to host a student are expected to compensate student Fellows. Students enjoy free housing together and a pedagogical lecture series to introduce them to the ins and outs of joining and founding a startup.

Martha, Direct Relief's Domestic Program Officer, explains oral hygiene to children receiving free dental work at a free clinic visit in Santa Maria CA.
About the Healthy Smiles Program
Since 1994, the Healthy Smiles by Direct Relief has provided free dental treatment to 1,800 low-income, uninsured school-age children with severe need. Sponsored by Healthy Smiles, one-day free clinics are hosted by local dentists and Healthy Start programs throughout Santa Barbara County.
This free-clinic event was hosted by Dr. Samuel Burg and was staffed by volunteer dentists and hygienists who provided dental care and education to over 60 children that day.
Receiving services are low-income, uninsured children identified by their schools as needing professional dental care that they would not have been able to receive without the program.
Additionally, children received Dental Packs – toothbrushes, toothpaste and floss – that were donated by multiple healthcare manufacturers to Direct Relief and packed by volunteers at Direct Relief. For some families, event the cost of a toothbrush is too much and children go without. These donated products ensure that children can continue the good oral hygiene practices they learn during their free clinic visitl.
Each year, Direct Relief distributes approximately 1,000 child dental kits and 3,400 family dental kits (each of which serves a family of five) with donated dental supplies, which Direct Relief then allocates to their local partner agencies. These agencies distribute the dental kits to the low-income children and families whom they already serve

Copy of Ebenezer's 75th Anniversary Program from 1962, naming Dr. Martin Luther King, St. and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. as Ministers.
The Historic Ebenezer Baptist Church, located at 407 Auburn Avenue, features a long history of civil rights, but is most famous for its association with Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It was here that Dr. King was baptized in 1936, gave his first sermon in the fall of 1947, and was ordained in February, 1948. He served as co-pastor with his father until he left to Crozer Theological Seminary in September 1948, and as Ebenezer's associate minister during his breaks from Seminary and his doctoral studies at Boston University School of Theology through early 1954. Under Dr. King, Ebenezer was often the site of meetings and rallies, including the organizational meetings that led to the founding of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference in 1957. He later returned as co-pastor with his father, serving from 1960 until his assassination in 1968. On April 9, 1968, a private funeral service, filled with 1,300 people, was held for Dr. King at Ebenezer, followed by a three-mile procession to his alma mater, Morehouse College, for a public service.
The church was founded in 1886 by its first minister, John Andrew Parker. In 1893 Reverend Adam Daniel (A.D.) Williams, the son of a slave preacher and Dr. King's maternal grandfather, became the church's second pastor. Under Williams, the church grew exponentially and moved twice before the current new church building was constructed from over an extended period of time, from 1914 to 1922, with some finishing touches not complete into the 1930's and 40's. No architect has been identified for the Late Gothic Revival design, although some oral traditions credit Rev. Williams.
In 1933, Reverend Martin Luther King, Sr., took over as Ebenezer's third pastor, a position he'd hold until his retirement in 1975. Alterations designed by Edward C. Miller in 1955-56 introduced the Christian Education Building, connected by an elevated walkway, a redesigned interior, and a baptismal pool. In 1970, Muldawer & Patterson in association with J.W. Robinson designed a new vestibule in front of the education building and made interior alterations. A four-year, 8-million restoration returning the church to its 1960's appearance was completed in 2011.
The Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site, an area of about 2 blocks around Auburn Avenue, was established by the National Park Service (NPS) on October 10, 1980. The historic site includes King's gravesite; the historic Fire Station No. 6; the "I Have a Dream" International World Peace Rose Garden; and the International Civil Rights Walk of Fame.
The Martin Luther King, Jr. Historic District, an area bound roughly by Irwin, Randolph, Edgewood, and Auburn Avenues, was established in 1974 and later, in 1977 designated a national historic landmark, and expanded in 2001. The district encompasses the environs in which Martin Luther King, Jr., grew up from his birth in 1929 until he left Atlanta.

Students participating with the NFL’s Fuel Up to Play 60 program event talk about how they have encourage physical activity in their lives, schools and community, at the Indiana Farm Bureau Football Center, in Indianapolis, IN, on August 8, 2017. Participating in the event is U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue who is on a five-state RV tour, featuring stops in five states: Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, and Indiana; titled the “Back to Our Roots” Tour, he is gathering input on the 2018 Farm Bill and increasing rural prosperity, Aug. 3-8, 2017. Along the way, Perdue will meet with farmers, ranchers, foresters, producers, students, governors, Members of Congress, U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) employees, and other stakeholders. This is the first of two RV tours the secretary will undertake this summer. “The ‘Back to our Roots’ Farm Bill and rural prosperity RV listening tour will allow us to hear directly from people in agriculture across the country, as well as our consumers – they are the ones on the front lines of American agriculture and they know best what the current issues are,” Perdue said. “USDA will be intimately involved as Congress deliberates and formulates the 2018 Farm Bill. We are committed to making the resources and the research available so that Congress can make good facts-based, data-driven decisions. It’s important to look at past practices to see what has worked and what has not worked, so that we create a farm bill for the future that will be embraced by American agriculture in 2018.” For social media purposes, Secretary Perdue’s Twitter account (@SecretarySonny) will be using the hashtag #BackToOurRoots.
