New Chromebooks for Holy Cross School in Belize

On behalf of the Outreach Team, I wanted to share an exciting update on the status of some monies that had been designated to fund ongoing work at Holy Cross school in Belize. We were able to contact Brian Ostenso who is the Chairman of Holy Cross Education Foundation. He was beyond thrilled to hear of the funds that St. Andrew’s wanted to donate to the school.  I want to share his response with all of you: 

Dear Elise,

Your gift of about $4000 will allow us to purchase 20 Chromebooks. We have been using them in our 6 upper division classrooms. Right now we only have 5 per classroom and could really use 10 per classroom. The teachers and students have been using them a lot and will be very happy to hear that more may be on the way.

Thank you for your very generous gift and ongoing support of the children at Holy Cross Anglican School.

Sincerely,
Brian 

Thanks to everyone at St. Andrew’s for your time, talents, and monies that continue to touch lives outside our walls!

Vestry Liaison to Outreach Team
