Cultural Care sponsors the rebuilding of a library at St. Mary's Academy in New Orleans. After Hurricane Katrina, the school was heavily damaged and Cultural Care has been raising funds to help stock and decorate the library for its' elementary school children. During a meeting in New Orleans in October we were lucky to be able to visit the school and read to the children. They were beautiful, attentive and thrilled to have visitors. They were especially excited to meet our staff from around the world. They saw books from Korea, Australia, Venezuela, Argentina, Germany, Sweden, Brazil, Chile, Finland, France and more. We were rewarded with their excitement, smiles, and tons of hugs.
