Upon returning home, she con- tacted the Guyanese president White, who approved of her work and suggested the supplies could go to a specific area or the country as a whole. She deeded the supplies could go to a specific arca which she is now selecting. As well, she has made shipping arringements with the— Counsel General of Guyana in Toronto. They were very helpful. The first shipment will go in December and hopefully the next shipment will be sent out in the spring.
