While we were in America we received some very generous donations from my father Richard Munson, and Franz and Sally Jaggar, two participants in last year’s CAORC conference which was held in Mongolia. Together with an assortment of supplies that we purchased we were able to make some very much appreciated donations to the school, kindergarten, and hospital here in town.

I held a small ceremony at school and invited all the teachers to check the materials out. While some things are only useful in my class (e.g. English books), other materials such as scissors, glue sticks, and construction paper were excitedly welcomed by all the teachers.

I also took some of the supplies over to the Kindergarten where I know all sorts of fun things will be made.

Lastly, thanks to my father we were able to give the hospital some much needed supplies including band aids, bandages, and alcohol wipes. While band aids are not super expensive here, they can be hard to come by. It is not uncommon for people to literally buy one or two band aids at the store.

Thank you again Dad, Franz, and Sally. Your donations really made a difference in the lives of people with boo boos or the need the craft.
