Children's Cross Connection

is a local non-profit organization that brings children to America who

have otherwise near-hopeless medical situations if left in their homelands.

The professionals involved in this effort donate their time and talent,

hospitals donate their facilities and airlines provide transportation.

Local families host these children during their treatment in America.

My goal is to provide attention

and information about these children in hopes of providing for them a

brighter future. Maike is an exceptional little girl, extremely outgoing

despite her deformities, and deserves to have further education instead

of passing the days in her village remembering her friends and classmates

in second grade in America. (I am room-mom in her second grade class at

Peeples Elementary.) Her single mother cannot afford to send Maike to

school in Columbia.

Please consider looking into

this story in hopes of raising awareness of this community effort and

hopefully raising funding through Children's Cross Connection for Maike's

education. If I can provide further information, I would be happy to do

so. Children's Cross Connection may be contacted through Mrs. Rose Emily

Bermudez, president.

Thank you for your time. Any

efforts you extend are sincerely appreciated.
