Video provides background on how Colleen started to collect pencils for kids in Africa. Her pencil collection drive led to the writing of the Pencil Project Book by James Ryan Orr, Author. 

The video includes clips of Louis (Grandfather) and Ivy (Mother) during a visit to Develop Africa's office in Tennessee, November 2017.

Colleen explains to us that she felt bad when she heard of kids in Africa that did not have pencils. Pencils help kids to understand better and remember when they take notes. 

Colleen felt responsible and wanted to do her part to help ensure kids in Africa got pencils. She hopes that what she has done and this book will inspire other kids to collect pencils and school supplies for kids in Africa.
