On direction from our Board of Directors I had the distinct pleasure to distribute some funds which we have raised in the past number of months.
I was directed to donate $750.00US to the DREAM Project in Cabarete DREAM Project: Dominican Republic Education and Mentoring Project Sarah Ross accepts on behalf of the DREAM Project.
I was directed to donate $750.00US to the Mustard Seed Community orphanage in Cangrejo between Montellano and Sosua Mustard Seed Communities Johanna Ventura and Marverlee Sharpe accept on behalf of Mustard Seed. The hadprints on the wall belong to the disabled kids who live there...
I was directed to donate $500.00US to the Sosua Kids project in Sosua http://sosuakids.spaces.live.com Karen Conquergood and Colleen Misner accept on behalf of the Sosua Kids.
In addition I was directed to donate the funds raised from Canadian Tire Money donations where I saw fit, so I chose to add the $350.00CDN of school supplies to my personal clothing donation of approx $160.00CDN and donate it to a charity, Fundacion Patria Fundaci?n Patria , which is supported by a great friend of BTBCF. Mr. Mario Mattana, General Manager of Fun Royale/Fun Tropicale has donated generously to our efforts by allowing us to auction vacations at his resortwith the funds going to BTBCF. We are pleased to reciprocate when we are able. Sr. Mario Mattana accepts on behalf of Fundacion Patria.
AND finally, just in case anyone wants to know the REAL reason some of us do this... I call this one
Many thanks to our supporters who make all of this possible; without you WE ARE NOTHING.

P.S. - Just noticed that the date on my camera needs resetting (oops!); honestly, I really was in the DR the past two weeks - LOL.
