Update — Going Forward

Dear Friends/mes amis/meszame,
This update is to share the exciting news that I am planning another trip to Haiti to volunteer at the orphanage, Foyer Evangelique, in January!

Also, Wednesday, October 13, at 2:30 at BUHS, I will be showing slides from my recent trip. This slide show is for the student-run group, CLEA (Child Labor Education Action), so they can plan fundraiser for the orphanage.

There will be fundraisers planned in the next few months and we have a list of supplies that we are collecting to bring down to the Foyer Evangelique, as follows:

Pencils
pens
razors
shampoo, soap,
toothpaste
brushes
toothbrushes
combs
etc.
basically, all the things we take for granted here. Call me at 802-451-6357 if you have any questions, or want me to come speak to your school, etc.

SAVE THE DATE: Friday, November 5th, 2010, during Brattleboro's monthly Gallery Walk, there will be a fundraiser at the Hooker Dunham Building lobby at 139 Main Street.

One last thing.... THANKS to all the people who supported me, financially, and with advice and encouragement!

Goodbye for now and thanks! Au revoir et merci/aurevoirmerci!
