It's a new month and a new sales amount...drum roll!

Sales in shirts have hit $14,000.00! Our teaching team goes to Haiti in July, including a new teacher coming along this summer for her first Haiti experience. I am not sure what to expect once there. It does sound grim for those who are trying to live normal lives there. I am sure things will not feel the same. We want to provide the teaching staff of Three Angels with as much support as possible. We want to build them up in character, dignity and spirit! If you have any items to donate please contact me! I would love to sell more shirts before we leave! I am now selling shirts in the USA. Tell your friends about the T shirt drive. The shirts are selling themselves! I have high hopes and even higher Lespwas! :)

OVER $10,000.00 in SHIRT sales and still LESPWAING for more!!

I am still waiting for you Ellen.. I thought I would try a direct approach...El I know you are a famous person but so am I! I know you are rich but so am I. I know you are beautiful but so am I. I know you are a humanitarian but so am I. I know you are a strong woman who is highly compassionate and so am I. I also know that you WILL contact me as we have much more in common than you realize! Let's chat it up....sister! :) by the way my cat is still waiting to hear back from you too! 
So LESPWA your way to Canada eh? Wonder what it takes to hear from you? 

Over  $8,000.00 of shirts have been sold in the HELP HOPE HEAL T shirt drive...Amazing but just getting started! Catch the LESPWA "tap tap" and come along for the ride. I will be taking all funds this July! GO CANADA GO! Keep caring, keep knowing that YOU make a difference! IT costs $27.00 to send a child to school. Medicine and food is expensive in Haiti. Let's show the world that WE LESPWA!

Over $6,000.00 and groooooowing!

If you have ever had a thought...that turned to an idea.....that became reality...well then, that is what HELP HEAL HOPE has become! It was a simple creative idea that ignited a spark that grew into a flame that is now burning strong!  Sometimes when we aspire to take action it creates a wave of life! A unique but common action that we all do...think! I simply knew that I must act and do something to help.  If we could change the world with one action of HOPE and love could it become more? Stop and think...if you had a thought that could become an action that could  make a difference to someone would you pursue it? Would you step out of your comfortable world to enter into a drive toward a goal? If just one famous person would stop to take the time to read this and know that LESPWA means hope...then maybe it could start a spark of action. 

Bamboo T shirts are made in Canada eh?

As I wait for Ellen to respond my red hair is turning grey! Maggie is weeping dog tears and not understanding why Ellen has not called yet! In the meantime, orders are booming, Lespwa is catching in the KW area, students are buying shirts like hotcakes on Shrove Tuesday, sales have reached over $6,000.00  and growing and I am driven to sell more! The shirts are really selling themselves...as the whole
idea behind the T shirt drive gives people the chance to make a difference and show they care! The T shirt design was done by a local graphic designer and the word Lespwa was chosen by me....for the HOPE of the future of Haitian children! Over 1/3 of all children living in Haiti do NOT make it alive to their 5th birthday! I have added 2 photos of the 2 of the 10 colour choices of the Bamboo T's. Great wearing, very trendy and beautifully fitted! OK Ellen I challenge you to Indian leg wrestling...bet you have never seen that before!

Welcome students

I would like to welcome you to my blogspot. I have never done a blog before so please be patient with me!
My goal is to promote my T shirt drive to teenagers around the world. I want people to know that Lespwa (Hope) is possible and that you play a very important role in tomorrow's future! When you were small you learned how to be cared for, loved and supported. Now it is time to use what comes naturally, and care for someone else. In Haiti, it costs $27.00 a month for a student to go to school. The cost of living in Haiti high. Poverty is a way of life. Please post what you think about how you can help support and care for individuals just like yourself a world away.I can not wait to hear from you and about all your wonderful ideas.

NEW ORDER JUST ARRIVED!

OK Ellen where are you? If Celine calls me first I might be disappointed! Maggie is still wearing her shirt for you! The weekend after the article I had over 50 emails and 20 phone messages! Way to go K.W. and Cambridge community! Let's wear our Lespwa proudly! If we each spent $10.00 for shirt and went without what that $10.00 could buy us...just think that you have sent a Haitian child to school for 1/2 a month!
It costs $27.00/month to send a child to school! Most children in Haiti only go to grade 6 if they are that lucky! They then help the family survive....if they have learned a trade like sewing, embroidery etc. If not they might shine shoes sell oranges or beg! I am going to Haiti in July....lets see how many children we can help between now and then!  I talked with the principal of the school on the weekend....and some of the children perished in the earthquake.

Please buy a T shirt ! New colours and sizes in! Email me or call! Where are my USA orders????? Ellen help me! ok? :) Joyce
