I read about  Ryan’s Well in Readers Digest (Jan/01) and was awed that the heart of a six-year-old could be so touched by strangers in another country. Ryan Hreljac, with the support of  his family, planted just one seed to bring clean water to one village in Africa.  From that seed a very large tree of service has grown.  Ryan’s is a wonderful story of what one person can do, even when that person is just a little boy.  (Click the photo to go to Ryan’s website)
