To everyone who volunteers or who has volunteered thank you so very much. Since we have started to send the children to school you can see the difference in all of them. There is hope and your dollars and donations provide these children with hope. I would not have my day start any other way but to be there straighten them all out and then tell them to have a wonderful day at school and that I love them. I am blessed to have all of them in my life and I thank you all for your generosity...
I know of someone who would like to support one of those school children..but she wont be in Jamaica till the summer. Would it be possile to make some kind of link with someone at St Anthonys to hear if and how this may be possible?? Besides the post here is there a phone number or email address?
Fr. Jim has posted his contact info on another thread (findable by searching for "St. Anthony's") : If you're planning a trip to Negril, please remember to bring a 'donation' for St. Anthony's Kitchen. If you want to know what's needed most, please contact Fr. Jim at mgh@franciscan.org or call the church at (876) 957-4900.Originally Posted by ackee

THANK YOU, writiii!!
If someone wants to volunteer, do we just need to show up, or should we get in touch with someone in advance to let them know? Thanks!
Well this trip flew by. Did not get a chance to visit st anthonys or meet fr Jim, but that's how things go sometimes. Glad I sent a check to the friars before I came down. Gotta give back somehow. Some chop garlic, some bring clothes.
I believe the children are our future. Whitney.
