We have nearly met our goal of $6000 for the completion of the school!
Thank you to all who gave - your generosity is appreciated.

The first $1500 has been received in Guinea, and Gigla purchased necessary supplies for the Village. They plan on having the foundation in place by the time we arrive.



AbunDANCE dance-a-thon was an amazing success!

A huge thank you to all the dancers, drummers, supporters, and donors.
We raised over $2400!!

And to help us realise our long-term goals of sustaining the School, XE.com has offerred significant funding!
