"For Whatever Will Help"

Before I left for Africa my seven year old granddaughter, Lauren, gave me money she had saved in her bank. She said it was "for whatever will help." After going with Dr. Paul Y to do home visits with AIDS patients and seeing the devastating need for medicine and food, it was an easy decision where to use Lauren's gift of love. Because of an unselfish act of a seven year old, one AIDS patient will receive the needed anti-retroviral drugs (ARV's) for ONE year!! I can't wait to get back and thank her for that special gift.
