I just got back from the SCAW offices at 28 Pinehurst Crescent, the former home of the Dryden family which is now the headquarters for Sleeping Children Around the World.
Upstairs and downstairs was a beehive of activity as the team going to Kolkata was assembling labels and collecting the computer and camera equipment for the distribution later this month.
Then we had a visit from Rob Provencher and James Hodgins and their families. Rob and James (pictured above) are photographers in the Sudbury area who have a successful Web endeavour called NoBS PhotoSuccess and this year they raised money for Sleeping Children Around the World via their Web site again.
Last year they asked members of their forums to donate $5 if they so wished, ending up with donations totalling $3,750 ... and then they added $1,000 themselves. This year they asked their members for $10 to help Sleeping Children and this afternoon came to the house to hand a cheque for $7,000 to SCAW executive director, Linda Webb, and SCAW board chair, Dave Dryden.
Thanks again, guys ... and give a big hand to all the members of your forums too.
