Thank you Jenn.  Good to know that the CCC is something we can do as a
group.  I will call the House of Friendship tomorrow to see if they have a
way we can send a group donation.  With that information in hand, we can
make a decision about how & who we want to donate; as individuals or as a
group, CCC or HoF.

Take care everyone,
Sharon
