To All my loyal blog subscribers:

I was forwarded the following information from Children concerned , and I thought it worth posting. Please see pictures below.

"Everyone!We are working on a fundraising project that we could use your help on...before the November trip someone in our area donated $40for "any thing" - so while we were in Liberia we bought with itbeads (authentic African beads made in Guinea)and also clasps andstring, & we took the materials to Mrs. Sieh (Directors wife) tohave her oversee the older girls making necklaces andbraclets...they did a WONDERFUL job and sent back 55 matchingNeckalace and Braclet sets!And so now we would like to set up a system where we can sell thesenecklaces and raise money for the orphanage food etc. and also tocontinue to fund projects like these where the children can learn aproductive skill...Is anyone intersted in them? You can offer them to family andfriends...they make a great gift! for the moment we would just liketo sell the 55 that we have in the next 2 weeks so we can take themoney back to Liberia with us March 7th to buy more materials andkeep them working making more.
