Thank you Carolyn for all that you do for the inmates. Sometimes people don't understand that inmates have family that miss and love them and to have a message from them is greatly appericated. THANK YOU!!!!

She is a hero! There are so many familys so far from there loved ones that are incarcerated. A lot of familys cannot afford to go the distance to see them and this is a wonderful way of an inmate connecting or reconnecting with there loved ones. I think it is especially good for the children. Thank you Carolyn for all you do. Good luck.

I think you went to prison to do God's work. We don't always do the right thing, but we'er still God's children. We are sisters and brothers and need each other. God blessed you to be a blessing. He is smiling down at you. Keep up the good work.

Please vote for Carolyn. You can't imagine what the videos mean to the children. Some kids won't go to bed at night until they watch Mommy or Daddy. http://heroes.cnn.com/vote.asp... The children need this project!

What does this have to do with helping the children. You don't make any sense.
