Sally Goodrich

April 23, 2005 By Mark Draughn 4 Comments

Some people are amazing.

Sally Goodrich, whose son died in the Sept. 11 attacks, kept a grip on her grief as she surveyed the foundations of the Afghan school being built with money she raised in the United States.

…

Goodrich, a native of Bennington, Vt., and an administrator for schools in nearby North Adams, Mass., has helped raise about $180,000 for the new girl’s school in Surkh Abat, about 30 miles south of Kabul, in Logar province.

I can’t imagine a better way to help the Afghan people while simultaneously striking a blow against Islamic extremism than to educate a bunch of young girls.

    Help is always needed. Please see http://www.goodrichfoundation.org for information about the school in Afghanistan and information on how to donate to the effort. We are still working on the site – but it has some wonderful information and pictures. Thank you for your interest.
