Ambleside Online Helps Victims

I used to keep up with the Ambleside group. You might be able to help them...



The Ambleside Online Advisory has created a free curriculum plan, AO-HELP, for families and relief workers who need emergency educational help for children in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. All books and materials necessary are available online for free. It requires no materials other than pencil and paper, and a Good Samaritan friend with access to a computer and a printer. It is designed to be user-friendly, even for those who have never taught, and suitable for a wide age range.

We offer AO-HELP in the hopes that it will fill a gap for the churches, support groups and other organizations that suddenly need to set up temporary schools for the evacuated children in their care who no longer have schools to attend, and also for families who wish to continue homeschooling during this crisis but do not have access to school materials.

We would greatly appreciate any help you can give us toward getting the word out quickly about AO-HELP to those in need.

We would also like to encourage churches and individuals to make copies of the e-texts required for implementing AO-HELP for those without computers. School supplies such as this can be sent to Project Noah for distribution to those in need. More information here: http://www.projectnoah.org/ .

Thank you so much for any help you can offer.

Grace & peace,
