Re: Request for School Supplies
We are supplying 40 children through St. Anthony's Kitchen. We also assist some children through our church. We will take as much supplies as we can get. If we would have left-overs we have connections with a number of schools (especially through our local Rotary Club with whom we collaborate) and would have no trouble distributing whatever we gather. No problem mon! --Fr. Jim

P.S. We need shoes too! Dress shoes or sneakers (black), for boys and girls, in a variety of sizes. --Fr. Jim
Re: Request for School Supplies
I'm the bag man. Where do I send the backpacks? Is someone collecting stateside?

Morning Jah Bless,
If you're not coming to Jamaica before the school year starts, but have back packs/school bags to donate I'm hoping someone 'stateside' as you said, can help you out to get them here.
Anyone??? I will also talk to Fr. Jim and see if he knows of anyone coming in the next couple of months....
Give thanks for wanting to help :)
Blessings!

Ps Jah Bless, can you please tell us where you are in the US.... then perhaps someone may know who can help to bring them to Jamaica.
Thanks!

Re: Request for School Supplies
Gail, any word about the shipment of school supplies and the waiver letter? --Fr. Jim
Re: Request for School Supplies
I am coming down Wednesday and have a free 2nd checked bag(up to 50lbs) that I have no use for. Thus, I can bring about 50lbs of supplies. What supplies are still needed? I am in the St. Louis area, so if there is anyone in STL that wants to send supplies to Negril, just PM me.

I'm bringing the Food Processor next week end, so cross that off the list.
