A little Kids to Kids help lets youth go a long way

Boston Globe 5/21/10: A little Kids to Kids help lets youth go a long way . When a Peace Corps volunteer needed funds for a new after-school program in a village in Costa Rica recently, she turned to a group founded by four Wayland Middle School students. Run by children to help their peers around the world, the nonprofit organization Kids to Kids is much more than a passing whim by schoolchildren. Since its founding in 2005, it has funded more than 230 small projects, helping more than 12,000 children in the Caribbean and Central America. In the coming year, it expects to distribute $200,000 in 10 countries.
