YOU CAN BE A HERO TOO!


As you probably read in one of my earlier posts, Lime Studios in CA recently held a benefit for the new ANA orphanage. Here is a link to the Amazing video they produced while at the current ANA facility: http://dreamsequencesvideos.com/limeaid/ . You will need to have the new version of Quick Time loaded in order to view the video, but trust me it is well worth it. You will see several appearances by the one and only Jean Delson. They need to raise a total of 1 million dollars to build the new orphanage, a school to serve both the children in the O and on the street, a medical clinic and a guest house for visiting parents. I encourage you to visit the ANA web page, which is listed at the bottom of my blog, and make any donation you can. Be a hero to these Haitian Angels!

Haitian Hero

Everyday hero's are very hard to find these days. People whose selfless acts really do help those less fortunate. On CNN today, I ran across one of those hero's. The story is of a young man from FL, someone who had everything he could imagine while growing up. His name is Aaron Jackson and he can really be a role model for each and every one of us. This story left me asking myself, How can I do more...I hope it does the same for you:

LIME - AID?!?!?!

If you're in the Santa Monica, CA area on Sept 7, there is going to be a really fun event that will raise funds for the new orphanage, It will also provide services to the whole community, including a school, clinic, and clean water supply. Check out the link for Lime-aid :
http://www.lime-aid.tv/ . Rock Cayo, the director of ANA orphanage, will be attending. They were in Haiti for several days and did some filming of the kids that will be shown. Here's hoping they raise the $400,000 needed for the new facility!
God Bless,
