The Bellingham Herald / News Update / Teen runs charity for Rwandan school girls

The Bellingham Herald / News Update / Teen runs charity for Rwandan school girls: "SEATTLE, Wash. Jessica Markowitz runs a charity that sends 22 poor girls in Rwanda to school. She has raised nearly $40,000, taken several trips to rural villages there, formed a partnership with a local girls' school and worked this past summer teaching Rwandan kids to read in English.

The amazing part is that Markowitz is only 14."
