Homemade Maple Syrup goes into the Silent Auction

These biology students at the University of Saint Francis have tapped the maple trees on campus.  Here they are boiling the sap for 10 hours.  This syrup will be making it into the silent auction for your bid.  Thanks freshman biology students, this will be a hit!

Have you signed up for the Race?

If you haven't signed up for the race, we have made it really easy for you.  On the right side bar are links to sign up online or print off registration forms.  In fact print off a few and give them to people who you know would love to participate.  On top of that there are free Casa Salad lunches for participants and lively music and a silent auction with great donations.  What a great time you would have.  Along with everything else you would be helping build a fabulous facility in Haiti for the young orphans who have been through so much.  We look forward to seeing you! Go ahead...sign up...we need you.

Learning to Walk

Michelle

This sweet gal is 3 years and 5 months old.
She is standing on her own which is quite a feat for her.
When she came to live at Our Lady of Perpetual Help Orphanage she had some monumental development issues to overcome. 
Look at her now.
Please participate in the two races that are upcoming or if you would like just make a donation on the right sidebar.
It will be a wonderful day when these children can move into their new and safe facilities.
