Small donations matter to our children & to those who give 


Several weeks ago I received a note from somebody who wanted to make a donation but she didn't have much money. She told me she and her kids would count out the money they had in their "change" jar. Today, a check for $100 arrived.


Over recent days the Enfield Day Care Kids on High Street sold baseball caps to benefit the Good Samaritan Rebuilding Fund. Their check is for $55.


Mike Lally works with a woman of Indian extraction. She gave Mike a check for $251. Mike said, "Why $251?" to which the lady replied, "In my country, when you give a gift you always add a $1 for good luck to the recipient." How nice! 


On behalf of the children and their families in Carrefour, thank you so very much.
