I'm not just facilitating the raising of funds for the education of these kids, I am also sponsoring one of them. If you remember my first blog entry, I mentioned Mary Grace. I am happy to say that Mary Grace is now back in school and her lola is watching the children during the day - daycare can be arranged free of charge for other children with parental type responsibilities to younger siblings.

Mary Grace and I visited the dentist and after 6 appointments she had a full cleaning, 11 restorations and 2 extractions. After 3 weeks, it has been reported to me that Mary Grace is still brushing her teeth everyday :) The total bill was $110 CAD - so I encourage anyone to please contribute to the dental fund for these children.

I understand that not everyone can make a long commitment like this for the years that are involved so I will also be trying to balance additional donations just in case one person needs to drop out. That being said we are asking for $50 a year - more if you can swing it. This amount will change the future for these children by helping them get an education and move one rung up the economic ladder. Without your help this is impossible. There are no social programs to assist these children in getting out of extreme poverty.
I am asking anyone who is interested in sponsoring a child for $50 a year to contact me and I will send you their picture and ensure updates are given as regularly as possible. Also we are hoping for donations towards dental work, vitamins, tooth brushes and tooth paste.
Donations can be sent to sales@highbanks.ca via Paypal: You can pay by MasterCard, VISA, Discover, American Express, or a PayPal email transaction at.
