Love In A Big World provides curriculum, professional development, student assemblies, and family resources. The goal of Love In A Big World is to connect with kids…to let them know that they are not alone in this big world…to teach them how to make wise choices…to give them hope.
Hi, my name is Tamara Fyke. And this is the story of Love In A Big World.
I started working with kids when I was in high school – camps, community organizations, schools. After graduating from college, I was a substitute teacher for urban schools in Nashville. The kids were tough, but I told them that if we had a good day I’d sing for them. While we were waiting for the buses to be called, I’d sing…they sang too…and we’d talk about life. My 12 year-old students told me that they thought they would die before the age of 21 because of the trauma they had experienced in their world. I thought, “Can music be used to give kids hope and teach them about making wise choices?” And Love In A Big World was born.
