Donation Challenge
This afternoon I am mailing these folks $20.00
Who here is going to make the same donation. Hell....it's the cost of a movie ticket or even a swing at a fast food joint. I'll wait for "Skyline" to
come out on Netflex and send these folks the movie money.
I am sure they can use $5.00 donations to whatever one here can afford.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Went to Waldo's Dollar store today, in Rosarito. Bought all kinds of goodies for the kids. This is so heart warming! Also picked up pictures of all
the kids from the orphanage. Going to bring them to the 8th grade class that's making the Christmas Bags! They are sending pictures of them selves
with the bags! What a great day!

I remember going to the Door of Faith Orphanage with my church group when I was in high school. The church has stopped the trips because they say
Baja is too dangerous.
The church members still donate items.

I am trying to get everything to me by Dec. 15th so that I can disperse the items evenly into each bag. The ages of each child will depend on what
goes in their bags. I don't know about VHS but I can find out. I will email DJ at the orphanage to find out.
Thanks again for your interest.
Dennis, Thank you for bumping this for me. I've gotten myself spread quite thin. I am also helping with rescue horses. Just bought one and I am trying
to get her healthy and fat. I'm a newbie at that too!

Careful you don't burn yourself out, Carla. These needs and demands can snowball. You can only do so much.

Unfortunately I haven't thought of doing this. I'm sure if you like , you can donate right to DJ at the orphanage. I am doing this on my own. I have
been having people send me money and then, at the end I will take my receipts and donation totals to DJ. I am mailing out the donation receipts to
everyone for tax deductions.
