Senator Chris Dodd and former President Bill Clinton visited Connecticut to thank students for their fundraising efforts on behalf of those affected by Hurricane Katrina and the December tsunami disaster in South Asia. Dodd and the Connecticut Association of Schools requested the visit after the Brother's Brother Foundation, a nonprofit that seeks to improve international health and education, agreed to match the students fundraising efforts dollar-for-dollar if Clinton agreed to accept the check for the tsunami relief fund that he and former President Bush co-chair. Connecticut school students raised $300,000 and with the matching dollars will be able to build a 1,500 pupil school in Sri Lanka and provide funding support for the next five years. The students are now raising funds to help those affected by Hurricane Katrina.
