Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.

~ Harriet Tubman


Harriet Tubman was born into slavery but escaped and then helped approximately seventy other families do the same through the Underground Railroad in an effort to help slaves escape to free States and to Canada during the Civil War.  Because of her heroism and dedication, she became known 'Moses'.  Later she became active in the suffragette movement and, though she lived her life in abject poverty, she never gave up the fight to help others.

I really felt touched with the efforts of this brave & kind lady. I appreciate those people who always try to do something for others.

Hi Reetika...I feel the same way! My parents immigrated from a country that was difficult for them so the assistance of others who helped is greatly appreciated by our entire family.
