As you celebrate the New Year, take a moment to learn about Mumbling Mommy’s current charity. From January through March, we are spotlighting Childcare Worldwide Charity. This is a child sponsorship organization that also sends its own Ugandan Children’s Choir to perform around the United States. Mumbling Mommy’s managing editor, Rachael, got the chance to see the choir when it was in the St. Louis area last fall, and it was a memorable evening! Here are a few brief facts from Childcare Worldwide’s website:
