Thank you, thank you, thank you...

Thanks to all of my amazingly generous friends and family, my fundraising (to-date) is at $1,051.26!! I can't thank you enough for the support you've all given me... and I hope I can continue to raise money for this special cause. I'm almost half-way to my goal... so please find it in your heart to donate what you can.

During our group meeting last week, we kinda got an overall idea of what this trip is going to be about. I keep thinking of the little kids we'll be meeting at the newly developed pre-school in Arequipa, and all of the other families that get by with so little. I'm hoping to be able to take with me a bag full of supplies to distribute to these families and to the school, and I'm hoping some of you might know of a supplier that would be generous enough to want to donate. Items I'm looking for include:

-toothbrushes
-hair combs
-pencils
-packs of gum
-stickers

Anything I take with me will need to be lightweight and easy to pack. Medical supplies might also be taken down with us, but as you can imagine it's difficult to get through customs with bags of syringes and such. :)
