Fundraising BBQ Saturday May 17, 2008

The sun came out after heavy rains the night before and the weather was just fine. Our neighbors did a fantastic job with setting up the front yard for the BBQ and helping with preparing food. Just before 4.30 pm the event started with an interview for the Littleton Independent. Around 30 people came this afternoon to enjoy the BBQ, good drinks and good company. It is so heart warming to see the support and outreach from all of you for a tiny non-profit organization in Togo.









We all enjoyed it very much that several members of the Halalisa singers were performing beautiful African songs from their repertoire.







I am extremely thrilled to let you know that we have raised a little over $2100 and € 35!

For PDH this means that so many more people can be given the needed medicines for malaria, TB and aids, so many more people can be given the high nutritional food they need and for so many more children their yearly school fees of $10 can be paid. This is super and I thank you all very much for your donations, time and effort. We will personally hand over all the money to the director of the center, Antoine Dzakas.

I would like to thank Donelans Supermarket very much for their support for the fundraising BBQ.
