Raising Money

We are so grateful for the monies we were gifted with for our wedding. All of it will be donated to the needs of Cascalheira. At this time our travel plans for Brazil are for October. We are looking forward to seeing these gentle people, the children, new babies and how Fia and Daniel are doing in their new home. There will be much to do. It's always overwhelming, the need is huge.
