Look At These Boys!!!

They just took a new picture of the boys and they look SO great!
That Medika Mamba stuff is amazing and thanks to Tara Livesay lots and LOTS of kids will be able to have it.
I included the picture taken the first week and a few weeks later, so you can see the amazing transformation in these boys. I can't wait to scoop these little guys up and love on them when we get to Haiti!

Marathon For Medika Mamba This Sunday

Because of the matching grants that Tara had been offered when she decided to run for hungry kids in Haiti, we decided to donate the money we made through Artists For Hope to help Tara raise more for Medika Mamba, knowing that it would help the kids at the Rescue Center.

They have actually raised over $53,000 and you can follow their journey on Sunday by watching Troy's Twitter updates on their blog during the race. I wish I could be there to witness her cross the finish line, knowing that SO many lives have been changed because she decided to run! Amazing! I love when people see a problem and they decide to get up and DO something about it! BIG things happen when people do that!

You can also read a great article about Tara here.

Thank you for being an inspiration Tara and helping to provide "peanut butter medicine" for all those hungry kids at the Rescue Center!

New Necklaces For Haiti

Is a part of YOUR heart in Haiti?

A group of us made over 100 glass tile necklaces as a fundraiser for the Rescue Center to be sold locally. These special few were made for our Etsy site for those of you whose hearts belong to the beautiful country and people of Haiti.

The money from these will go to help ship pallets of supplies from the US to Haiti. This is stuff that they really need for both the Rescue Center and the Clinic.

Purchase one of these necklaces for yourself or a friend and then use the opportunity to tell people who notice your jewelry about the children in Haiti and the RC!

Week 7 on Medika Mamba

We had to show the comparison between week 1 and week 7. These boys came into the Rescue Center and they really didn't know if they were going to live. So young and so malnourished. Thanks to the "peanut butter medicine" and care they are receiving at the Rescue Center, they are healthy and growing every week.

Thank you to everyone who as donated so far and purchased things from Artists For Hope to help these children. You really are making a difference in their lives.
