Help Send the Ballou Marching Band to the Rose Bowl! - The Ellen DeGeneres Show
Not sure which forum to place this in but figured since DC is close to Southern MD this would work. Also if I did this wrong and it doesn't work, oops i am not that great with IT and tech stuff.
I was born in Washington DC lived a bit in SE and then moved to Oxon Hill and over the years have made it down to St.Mary's. I hear alot of people talk down on DC and other poverty stricken cities with high crime rates and uneducated people. Yes DC doesn't haven't have a great reputation but maybe if more people had opportunities like these children they might have inspiration to better there lives. No matter what you may think of low income people these children are doing the best they can to go somewhere in life and with help from others maybe Washington DC can become a city of hope and inspiration. The artical doesn't say much but the video clip says a bit more. If anyone hasn't heard of Ballou High School, I will even say it is bad and I am not scared of much but I don't think I would send my child there.
