Channel 7 in Detroit raises $190,000 in a 15-hour telethon to support the efforts of the St. Vincent de Paul Society. Students at a Long Island elementary school spearhead a fundraising effort to fight poverty and improve education, health and development in East Africa. A small organization in Washington state supplies pigs to a village in Cambodia to help it work its way out of poverty in a sustainable way. In ways big and small, near and far, we find people “restoring the scandal of Christmas.” Read about some of those efforts  here and here.
