The countdown begins...

We've had two successful fundraisers this week.

One was held at Saint Rose of Lima in Haddon Heights, where former students of Mrs. Y donated the following items to our cause:
11 tubes of toothpaste
11 shampoo bottles
15 bars of soap
5 bottles of child cold medicine
2 suitcases worth of clothing for girls, boys, women and men
and several pairs of shoes.

We were able to vacuum pack all of the donated items into our "checked in" luggage.

Our other fundraiser was held at Riverfront School in Florence, where current students of Mrs. Y donated one dollar to wear hats in support of our cause.  We raised $286.00 from that event.

This time next Sunday we will be on our way to Haiti.  We are scheduled to touch down at 4pm.  

We thank everybody for being so generous and supporting this volunteer effort.
