~ Need a Fun Earth Day Project ~


Hi Everyone ~ I'm busy today getting things done on the farmette , but I found a wonderful project called " The Fundred Dollar Bill Project " that is taking place right now and thought I would share the information with my readers. This would be a great activity for " Earth Day " , I plan to host a small " Earth Day Party " for the grands. We'll make some fundred bills for this project , discuss why we need clean soil and eat foods that our earth provides us naturally. I hope you'll read about this project , share it with your readers and make a fundred bill to send to the project.



~ ~ The Fundred Dollar Bill Project ~ ~



Did you know that lead contaminated soil is a problem in many cities in the U.S. and is a condition that often significantly impacts the health of our children? Studies demonstrate that lead-poisoning can affect nearly every system in the body, compromising healthy brain development and leading to poor performance in the schools, attention deficit disorder and even juvenile delinquency. The good news is that there is a solution, and it is why I encourage you to participate in The Fundred Dollar Bill Project, a simple, fun and important project supporting a solution to lead-contaminated soil in New Orleans as a model for other cities across the United States with the same devastating problem.
Don’t miss out! In as little as 20 minutes you can create and donate a unique Fundred Dollar Bill artwork that will be picked up by a special armored truck and carried to Washington D.C. where a request will be made to our legislators for real change. Your creative contribution, along with 3,000,000 other individuals, will send a powerful message to Congress that we care about the health of future generations. This is a cool project, a great learning opportunity for all ages, with profound implications for the health of our planet and children.
To learn more about getting involved, visit the website: http://www.fundred.org/ and spread the word to your family, friends and colleagues!
