Haiti Thanksgiving Update

I have the day off, and the stinkers are at a movie with the mom so I figured I would do some blogging.

First of all, our Bake sale was a huge success. $727 was raised Which will go directly towards the purchase of medications for the Haitians. This money significantly closes the funding gap that we had up to that point. Special thanks to nurses Jill, Kathy, Diane, Sheila, as well as Amanda for setting everything up and for doing much of the baking. Also thank you to Janet for baking as well. For those of you who made purchases, I hope that the goodies you ate are as sweet as the feeling we will have when we provide the medications in Haiti.

With the gang having purchased the airline tickets and some of the other travel logistics getting nailed down, Our mission is definitely taking on a " real " Feel to it. Over the next several weeks we will be holding meetings, Making our medication and supply purchases, And registering our trip with the United States State Department. After that there's nobody to beat but the kicker until we take off for Haiti. Of course, as we head into the giving season, there is always room for more donations....;-)
