Thank you Timber Ridge community for all your kindness and generosity!  Eddy Benoit has taken the supplies you donated and is delivering them to the people of Haiti.  It is wonderful to be a part of such a caring school and community.  Below is a link to a CNN story featuring Eddy Benoit’s efforts for the Haitian people.  We will continue to accept donations and pass them on to be delivered.
