In the short time since the Educating Ashani Facebook group was
established, we have 92 members, and $972.32 BZD has been donated, not to
mention a variety of supplies that were on Ashani’s school supply list. You are
all Rock Stars!

With some judicious shopping, Ashani should have enough
money to purchase the remaining items on her school supply list. Any monies
left over from those purchases will be deposited in her educational savings
account at Atlantic Bank, here in Corozal, for future school needs.
And speaking of shopping, Ms. Angie, a local hairdresser, offered to
purchase some of the items Ashani needs from the beauty supply stores in
Chetumal, Mexico, as she goes there at least once a week to purchase supplies
for her beauty salon. On her first trip, she was able to get the mannequin head
(Miss Suzie-Kin with human hair) and stand, as well as shampoo, hair cutting
cape and a few other items on the school supply list.
On behalf of Ashani, thank you all for being so quick to
come to the aid of this child and just being flat out awesome! Be sure to check
back on the Educating Ashani page for updates and photos.
