Update on the kids and their stars

Programming note: WTRT? Yes. I’m writing one and it will be up later. Because … poop.

Ali’s list on Friday:

Ali’s list as of last night: 

Let’s get those other kids some scholarships for Haitian Families First’s school in Haiti! Details here. And thanks and hugs and pumpkin spice lattes to those of you who have stepped up already.

This is my child; the one I really wanted. Ylionise, the little girl Jamie brought to Florida for heart surgery. She’s older and bigger now and will be learning preschool level stuff, but again, THOSE EYES.

Someday I’ll go to Haiti with Jamie and Ali or Meet Tassy, who helped save her life too, and I’ll hug her.

    I got Bradley who, incidentally, looks cooler than the other side of the pillow.

  4. Herbie:

    If any of you would like to help Ali cross some more kids off that list, but don’t want to put forth the entire $180, please contact me. I have a few people that are looking to donate a portion of the cost. 9 people at $20= 1 sponsored child. Also, which one of you is going to step up and split the cost of a sponsorship with me? Let’s change the life of a child and send them to school this year!

  5. Michelle:

    How long does it take to get the name of a kid after you donate?

  6. Herbie:

    It’s pretty much immediate Michelle. #36 Dave was the last one sponsored so the next donation would be for Guervens

  7. Michelle:

    Thanks, wonder why I didn’t get one then…

  8. Herbie:

    It’s not an automated process so it may take a little bit of time. When did you donate?

  9. Michelle:

    Last night

  10. Herbie:

    Go and check your Twitter mentions :)

  11. Angela:

    Esteven! Who likes to run fast. I coach Cross Country and coached track for years, so this excites me! =)

  12. Michelle M:

    Thank you so much!!!! Jeffline makes me smile :)

  13. Amanda:

    I didn’t get a name yet either, although I got a thank you email, so I’m not sure if I did it correctly to take a kid off the list, but I figure the money goes to HHF regardless. Still, a name would be fun. :)

  14. Virginia:

    I bet this is yours, Amanda: https://twitter.com/HaitianFam1st/status/245203490576674816/photo/1
