More Good News and Garage Sale Update

We are delighted to add Cathy Van Ruhan to our Board. Cathy has been an active volunteer for quite a while and also traveled to Chiapas with Judith in December 2010.  We are looking forward to her insights and to working more closely with her.

The 2012 Garage Sale, headed up by Linda, expanded to two days this year. Thanks to all who donated items to us. Your donations provided the "quality" sale that people have come to expect. A big thank you to those who helped with organizing, pricing, set-up and the actual sale:  Board members Cathy, Sandy, Judith, Martha and especially Linda, as well as volunteer Rose.  We netted over $1400 ... an amount that will provide year-long scholarships for 3 girls!
