Nov 2, 2016

What a gift it was when Johanna wrote to me to express her desire to help Matènwa after Hurricane Matthew. She had already started a GoFUndMe page and was planning a series of other events.

Thanks to you and all your hard-working friends for putting together a successful week of delicious fund raising events for Matènwa at the University of London. You are all so kind to give your community the opportunity to help our community. This Schools for Schools relationship make us feel you care. I hope someday soon some of you can make the trip to Matènwa, Lagonav, Haiti to see what your efforts have accomplished. Thanks from our community to yours.
