		<description><![CDATA[<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/theonecampaign/2229066880/" title="tomorrow by ONE.org, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2287/2229066880_c416df9a0f_m.jpg" width="159" height="240" alt="tomorrow" align="left" /></a>On Friday, January 25th, Rockrimmon Elementary school in Colorado Springs produced a talent show to benefit ONE.  The show was organized by six enterprising fifth graders (with help from their parents and teachers).  It contained 40 acts and went off without a hitch.  They raised over a thousand dollars for ONE and <b>when asked why they did it, they said "Because we want to help the children of Africa."</b>  One of the children had seen a Bono video at her parents' church during the summer and proposed the idea, and the plan of donating the proceeds to ONE.

The children and parents had signed media releases, so we took photos, some of which are attached.  These kids were adorable!  They were also very well educated on the conditions in Africa.  I am so proud of this display of compassion and perseverance.

If fifth grade children, on their own, can do this.......what can we do?
