A small but welcomed donation on behalf of our Delray Chapter was made to a very needy local organization Operation Hope, Inc. in North Palm Beach. It was our first effort to reach out to the underprivileged in our “backyard”; and donations of home supplies were collected and sent to Operation Hope to help some of the homeless get started with transitional shelters. Sheets, towels and dishes were very much appreciated. A small contribution brought a beautiful smile to some needy people.

 

Lauren and Kaitlin had an opportunity to go to Leitrim, Ireland where they were welcomed and experienced home-stays in the chapter’s Manor Hamilton homes. (above with Barbara O'Daly)

Bunny, Barbara and the girls were also welcomed in Dublin by St. Anthony’s Youth Club, where the girls experienced living in the center of Dublin; also home-stays were extended. A dinner in Lauren and Kaitlin's  honor was given by a parishioner. Brother Alphie was on hand to thank us for all our support from People to People when he brought over the soccer club (boys and girls on three separate trips to Southern Florida.) We would not be able to participate without the help of the chapter members of Delray. The generosity of time and monetary contributions has been outstanding.

People to People International was started by President Dwight D. Eisenhower after World War II to promote international understanding and friendship among peoples of different countries and cultures. It is a nonprofit, non-political, cultural and educational exchange organization.
