WE RAISED THE ROOF!!!














The GCJ Ghana North American alums made a MIGHTY effort to RAISE THE ROOF on the orphanage!! We raised more than $3000, enough to buy the needed 256 aluminum roofing tiles, and nails to DRIVE THEM HOME!! Thanks to all who donated items, bought items, hauled stuff, lifted stuff, and gave us so much encouragement. We appreciate it.

If you missed it, you can still use your shoulder to hoist the water polytank into place, or get some ceiling panels in the kids' section. Or you can help pay our faithful carpenter his due! Maybe nails are your thing. GO FOR IT with a donation to Global Citizen Journey, via the web site at http://www.globalcitizenjourney.org/ or mail to Global Citizen Journey, 4425 Baker Ave NW, Seattle, WA 98107. (Make sure you indicate "GHANA PROJECT")

Our "Western Heritage Scholars" thank you!!! (These are the kids who will be moving in soon)
