Amazing connections with wonderful people!
Awesome clothing donations from volunteer, Leslie Vice!
Amazing clothing donations from a local friend of mine, Muksin!
Some of the kids and I with Molly-- my friend who I worked with as a case worker for Communities in schools knew this guy named Barton from her rotary club. She put me and Barton in touch and he told me that his friend Molly would be climbing Kilimanjaro in October. Molly contacted me and followed through by coming and visiting us while she was in Tanzania! She brought clothing and underwear and made a wonderful monetary donation! Thanks Molly!!
