An Update on the Sun of Hope Orphanage

As reported in our last newsletter, we did go ahead and purchase two all-in-one computers that we bought at a great price and that were absolutely beautiful. But, we ran into problems with getting them to Tanzania, which included, they were slightly too big to carry on to the plane and because of FAA regulations they could not be stowed in the luggage compartment. In addition, our other alternative, shipping them to Tanzania was equally as trying. Shipping costs ranged from $1,300.00 to $1,660.00, plus customs costs would have added an estimated $900.00! Sadly, we returned the computers and decided our best bet was to purchase a computer in Tanzania. The prices should decrease after the summer and we will try and purchase one then. We will update the status of this in a future newsletter.
As always, the Holy Spirit Sisters are extremely grateful to Assumption parishioners and their friends for their continued support. Sr. Sophia sent the following note:
