I recently decided to declare May as Project Apollonia Month. David Scott Anderson has a wonderful, progressive, feel good idea and I want to support it as much as possible.
The inspiration came about because of the reaction to Poem on Your Blog Day. I really did not think that many people would respond and participate. And I've been proven wrong. So far, there are more than a dozen trackbacks to the original post, there's a li'l gif for the project (thanks Gwen!), and some blogs are already posting poems. It gives me tremendous hope that Project Apollonia will be a huge success. Whether or not you are participating in P.O.Y.B. Day, please think about supporting Project Apollonia in any way possible.
I have to wait till early next week to see if my employer can assist me. If they can, I think it will be a piece of cake to accomplish David's goal of sending 1,000 books by the first week of June. No matter what, I want to personally get books for a decent-sized classroom in Costa Rica.
Next Friday I hope to have more information and insight into a plan of action for the project. Stay tuned.
