Default Schools Damaged - Support Needed

Hi everyone



We have posted some pictures of the damage sustained by a few of the DREAM Project's schools on our Fiesta website. Pictures along with a few details of the damage can be found at

http://fiesta.webcentre.ca/jeanne.htm

We have also received an updated Top 10 list of needed school supplies. The list can be viewed at

http://fiesta.webcentre.ca/list.htm

. A List link is also included on the damage pics page noted above. This list will be updated continually over the next few weeks, when all losses from Jeanne have been determined.

On behalf of the entire Fiesta Committee, thanks for taking the time to read this and visit the website. We know that you will do whatever you can to help

Sharon, Karen, Jimmy & Lyndsey

Anywhere you go you can help the children by bringing school supplies.

Contact your resort...or the Outback Safari.
