Here is what some of our donors have done...

Jefferson Elementary School, New Jersey donation 2013

The 6th grade students of Jefferson Middle School,  Jefferson Township, North Jersey. As they did last year, wrote a poetry book which they sold to raise $1185.37 for LGHLC.

The teachers and students invited Mr, and Mrs. Shivdat to the school where they did a presentation in the Gymnasium and presented them with the check and 10 boxes of books and school supplies for our Centre.

Inspiration from two little girls

Twelve year old Rebecca and her friend Molly purchased a Casio 76” Piano Style Electronic Keyboard that comes with a stand for the new Lusignan-Good Hope Learning Center (LGHLC).

The girl’s motivation was fueled by their compassion for the Guyanese children and their love for music along with the desire to give the gift of music.  They both wanted to bring music to the center and Rebecca is planning on being there for the opening of the center and will teach the children how to play simple songs and how to use the keyboard.
