Dear Oprah,
I'm on a mission and I need your help. Actually, Valary Ankinyi needs your help. She's the young African girl I have sponsored for the last several years. She deserves a spot in your Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy For Girls...I'm just not sure how to get her there. So I'm going to write you a letter (via this blog) everyday for the next 30 days, hoping against hope that somehow you'll see it by the end of the 30 days (more on the 30 day thing later). Fittingly, at the end of that time, it will be VALENTINES DAY...and after all, what better gift of love is there than showing your love for a child's future through education?  So let me begin...it's a great story! You're gonna like it :)
