Even after 50 years as an educator, Estella Pyfrom was not ready to slow down after retirement. When Estella realized that fewer students had access to computers after school, she and her husband spent their life savings on a mobile learning lab called Estella's Brilliant Bus. Now, Estella provides whatever services a community might need, from after-school tutoring to free food distribution. Her reward, the smiles on the faces of the children who look at her and say: "I did it."

    I love the way Estella has taken her skills to the community. I am a teacher who misses classrooms filled with children. I am retired. I would love to serve the children as Estella serves her community.

    What inspired me is your bringing such good to our attention. I would like to send a contribution to this thoughtful, compassionate woman for developing an idea that would be wonderful if it went viral. Haven't much but as we all know, even a few dollars helps and lots of few dollars could get her elected President!

    Everyone can do something to help the people around us. It may not be as big as Estella's bbus, but there are many other smaller and less expensive ways. We just have to learn to look around us, and seek what we can do.

    Sometimes something is just right, cherish those moments and the people who inspire them which in turn allows another to go out and honor that inspiration. What an awesome story, and in life it is our story that matters.
