Friends,

Here is a quick, easy, and free way for you to help schools kids in
your community to connect and share with other kids around the world.

*With the help of an organization called Rafiki, today, HOPE+ gives
schools in your community the chance to connect with students around the
world-to meet new friends, share, learn and explore the world together.*

With over 2,300 schools in 120 countries, Rafiki gives teachers and
students the online tools they need to connect and collaborate on
innovative projects that will help students better understand their
academic curriculum. In real time, students will have the ability to
connect across the world via live video and audio conferencing to share
ideas and even create their own web pages with the use of Rafiki's safe,
moderated framework which gives teachers full control over how and when
their students use Rafiki.

It's easy, safe and fun for students. And you can make it happen right
NOW.
