"Oklahoma mom helps rescue 10 girls on Afghanistan's robotics team"

Ten rescued. Twenty five more, plus the team's mentor, to go.

That's a *great* story.

I searched that article for a way to donate or to get in touch with her so that I could offer to help, but came up dry.

It was late last night, though, and maybe daylight will bring me some networking ideas for ways of reaching her through people who know people who know people in Oklahoma City.

That's a great idea, MA. If you find a way to do that and are able to share it here (or via PM), please do!

I will!

“Lawyer for Afghan girls’ robotics team tells Oklahoma woman to stop taking credit for rescue”

“… a lawyer for the team’s parent organization, the Digital Citizen Fund, said that Reneau has overstated her role and has, in fact, put the girls and their families at risk because her repeated claims are undermining ongoing rescue efforts in the country.
“Continuingly recycling old pictures with the Afghan Girls Robotics Team, many of whom are minors, as validation that you had anything to do with their immensely stressful and dangerous escape not only impacts the safety of the girls but it also significantly affects the safety of the members of the team who still remain in Afghanistan,” wrote Kim Motley, a lawyer for the group and a Digital Citizen Fund board member, in a letter sent to Reneau just after midnight Wednesday. “It is highly unfortunate that you would use such a tragically horrible situation … for what appears to be your own personal gain.”
