An Appeal to Generosity

Greetings from Rhode Island!

I have returned stateside (I just recently learned this phrase and I like it) and am enjoying the little luxuries of home, the comfort of family, and the laughter that comes with seeing much-missed-friends! However, I have also found myself in need of funds in order to return to Belize next semester. I was made aware of this a few weeks before the end of the semester. It was a bit of a blow but I thought and prayed about it for a while. I was strongly considering staying home this semester and getting a job because of the lack of money even though I hated the idea of leaving these kids half way through the year. Fr. M (the priest in charge of the volunteers) told me that he wants me to come back and to assume I'm coming back.

Fr. M along with Mr. R (principal) want to fund-raise for me. However, I would still like to ask you all if you are able to give to please email me at bdeacutis@gmail.com because any amount will help to lighten their load. Honestly, any amount is helpful from $5, $10, $20...anything! I know it is so difficult right now with money (economy, holidays, etc.) and that is why I have waited a few weeks before asking. Please keep me in your prayers and thank you for your support!!
