I never considered writing a "review" of a non-profit organization until I saw this category on Judy's Book -- and when my kids went on a field trip to Books for the Barrios with their preschool. This organization sends donations of books and other educational supplies to tiny communities in the rural Philippines. B for the B serves as a great educational resource for kids, who learn not only how good it feels to give to others, but also all about life in another country where things are very different but where the kids are "just like us." This proved to be one of the most popular field trips of the year for the preschool, and we plan to take our kids there in the future, either as a family or with larger groups of kids.
