| FREE tee shirts! |
 Okay, we admit this is shameless self promotion to encourage you to read the pages of our Web site, but where else will you get free tee shirts just for surfing the Web? On one of the pages linked to this newsletter, you'll find a six-digit code in brackets. Find the code and e-mail it to karen.drummond@abc-usa.org. Each of the first six responders will receive six free Penny Project tee shirts that will help your congregation raise awareness about the number of children living with hunger, spiritual and emotional as well as physical, in the United States and Puerto Rico.
