[ISLMA-Share] Organizations that help people in poverty

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

Good morning!

A teacher at my school is looking for an organization that "has made some
sort of change in the world through helping people in poverty" that would
be willing to Skype with some students.  She has reached out to some places
on her own, but hasn't had much luck.  I personally don't know of any
specific organizations off the top of my head, so I thought I would ask the
great minds of ISLMA.  The teacher said, " I was thinking about
organizations or individuals who have helped with food, access to
education, books, health or anything really. The kids need to make a change
in their local community and globally so I would like them to be inspired
ideally."

This sounds like such a cool idea, I would love to help her out!

Any ideas or contacts?

Thanks for your help!
