Welcome Back!

We're excited for another year of working with A Better Life for Kids on their project in Ghana, Africa!  Ms. Nizynski will be presenting her video, pictures, and exciting news at our first extended advisory.  Be ready for another year of fundraising!  We'll see if we can beat our last year number! 

A Better Life for Kids!

A Better Life For Kids has a new website.  Check it out!  http://abetterlifeforkids.org/index.php 

They also have a benefit this Friday on August 5th, where Mrs. Nizynski will be sharing her most recent experiences in Ghana.  We look forward to hearing about how our money was spent, and how it benefitted the kids!
