Christmas Ornaments Ready!

Seasons Greetings family and friends!

As we said in our previous posts, we have been working on this years Global Ties Christmas ornaments brought to you exclusivly by the members of Kamba Cooperative. We are using this opportunity to help other refugees get more acquainted behind the sewing machine and to be a way for their hard work to receive some much needed attention. Because Kamba members believe in the value of a good, healty education, we will be putting the money made from these ornaments directly into a water project for Hope Primary School. We can't thank them enough for donating their time and their skills to help make this project a success. Now we must do our part. We have completed nearly 200 ornaments which we have sent to Karen and Tommy David in Statesboro, Georgia and to Mary Graves in Naples, Florida.

If you are interested in donating through the purchase of an ornament you can Contact Mary or The David's, comment to this blog, or you can email us directly at jimbograves@gmail.com.

so. A lady told me about this program with Krogers where you can get an orginization to buy gift cards and then use said gift cards to buy their food. K Roger will make a charitable donation of like 1 or 2 % of the money spent on those gift cards. She said that her church does it for some relief group in Uganda, maybe you guys could hook that up here. Christ the King or something. they make like 50 bucks a month for the charity, not much i know but every little bit helps.

Post Script
I tried to Find T-Bone at the Game in Athens.The Tailgate spot was empty and i did not see Tommy's Hummer anywhere. I then went back after the game but could not get into the Holiday Inn lot because it was flooded with human tears. You got to let us win one every two or thee decades, just to keep it interesting.
Much love-
