GOOD PEOPLE

A retired teacher from Florida has used her retirement money to turn a bus into a mobile classroom for underprivileged students. Estella Pyfrom, 76, spent around $900,000 decking out a bus with computers and desks, and now drives it through Palm Beach County, Fla., offering local kids a place to do homework and learn about technology. Pyfrom, a daughter of migrant farmworkers who became a licensed teacher with a master’s degree, sees the bus as an opportunity to help others rise up from poverty. “We will make a difference,” she said, “one child at a time.”
