After the reading the kids will be able to consider what they can do to make a difference, illustrating those thoughts by drawing themselves with Loukoumi the lamb. Then the children will complete the sentence “I will Make A Difference by?” and then do the good deed on National Make a Difference Day on October 24th.

Over 10,000 children will take part in the fundraising events and every time someone purchases “Loukoumi’s Good Deeds” or the follow-up “Loukoumi’s Gift,” $2 will be donated from the sales to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, one of the world’s premier pediatric cancer research centers.

The CD of “Loukoumi’s Good Deeds” is narrated by Jennifer Aniston and John Aniston; it teaches children to morality of doing good deeds to make a difference in someone’s life. The CD also has the character voice of Oscar winner Olympia Dukakis, Grammy winner Gloria Gaynor, American Idol’s and Tony nominee Constantine Maroulis, Guiding Light’s Frank Dicopoulos and CBS News anchor Alexis Christoforous.
