Last month Ellen had the Albuquerque teacher Sonya Romero on her show. It was on that show that Ellen told us what great wonders Sonya has done for the school, the students and some of the kids who were in need.
Sonya and the Lew Wallace Elementary School were each given $10,000. The money was obviously to help others and for Sonya who took in two of her students as foster children. Those two students needed the help.

Yesterday Ellen called Sonya to “check in with her”. Sonya was supposed to be given an award, but it was just another gift from Ellen.
Ellen presented Sonya with the gift that Ford gave, a 2015 Ford Edge.
The car is now big enough for her all her kids now.
Yesterday Sean “P. Diddy” Combs was on Ellen’s show too,.. it was after Sonya’s shock when P. Diddy participated in Ellen’s giveaway.
P. Diddy said, “I want to pay for your first 2 years of gas!”
Shutterfly donated $10,000 to Lew Wallace Elementary School… Ellen tells us that some of these kids don’t eat on the weekend, they eat again on Monday’s.
