Thank you so much for your assistance in helping us get to Haiti with loaded suitcases to help the refugees!! Just want to clarify that we’ll be going with World Vision and not World Mission though I hear they are a wonderful organization as well!!
We’ll be having a gala where you’ll be able to bid on items in a silent auction as well as stuff our suitcases there. For more information you can visit: http://www.jenkrollphotography.com/blog/2010/01/28/haitian-school-fundraiser/
Best wishes to you all and thank you once again!!
