Wow! What a great campaign this Dallas suburb school did with their students! Can you imagine walking 12 miles to school everyday?? These bicycles will come in so handy....and to think they're working on raising money now to ship a BUS over, too! Amazing kids....these are the stories our headlines should be full of instead of the Hollywood starlets who can't get their acts together. Hurray for our GOOD KIDS! :)
