Billy wanted $100 to buy a remote control car, so he prayed like crazy for two weeks... But nothing happened. Billy decided to write God an urgent letter, requesting $100. When the post office received the letter addressed to God, they forwarded the letter to the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister was so amused by the letter that he told his secretary to send Billy a $5 bill, figuring this would appear to be a lot of money to a little boy.
Artisan Breads Traditional Beestings .
Wholesome Soup + Sandwich
When Billy received the cash, he was so delighted that he wrote a thank you note which read: "Dear God: Thank you very much for sending the money. However, I noticed that you sent it through Ottawa. Next time, don’t do that because, as usual, those guys took 95%. Love, Billy"

Don’t put me on a wait-list Jaime* is a 9 year old ball of enthusiasm and joy. He has been on the wait-list to get a big buddy since his Kindergarten teacher referred him to KidStart when he was 5. He and his 2 brothers are being raised by his single parent Mom and haven’t had any con tact with his Dad in the past 3 years. Jaime hopes to get a buddy who will build driftwood forts with him on the beach, go fishing (he’s never been, but would love to try it), and play soccer or other sports together. Jaime is one of 143 kids (aged 6-18) in Campbell River. Mentors can be individuals, couples or families, 19 to 109yrs. Volunteers say that they love KidStart more than they ever imagined. For 3 hours a week, anywhere that fun things are happening (walking the dog, cooking dinner, etc), KidStart is one of the most heartwarming and rewarding opportunities a volunteer can have. To find out about becoming a volunteer or to sponsor a child in our community, please contact the John Howard KidStart Mentoring Program Coordinator Tara Jordan at 250-203-3111 or tara.jordan@jhsni.bc.ca *Names and photos of children are changed to protect confidentiality
