I don't know how much of a connection there is other than Amy Denicore states she is home schooling their three children and presumably uses the charity's mission as a teaching point. Plus linking to other parents and their children. I will hazard a guess that they would accept all comers, not just home schooling families.
Amy lives by the philosophy instilled in her by her mother, “It never hurts to ask.” Years of painless asking has shown that most people want to help others, but sometimes just need to be asked. The generous support everyone has provided Changing Latitudes is proof positive of this philosophy.
As a home-school mother of three, Amy supports the efforts of Changing Latitudes state-side, but looks forward to hands-on work, once the kids are old enough to participate. In the meantime, Amy enjoys her children’s creative efforts to raise funds for school scholarships for Haitian children.
If you are looking for ways your children can participate locally to raise awareness about the needs of children throughout the world, please contact us. It’s never too late early to plant the seed in a child for a life-long commitment to community service. As Nelson Mandela said, “It only takes one person to decide to create a ripple that will lead to a lasting change in the lives of others.”
