Giving Back to Jamaican Community After the Face of Tragedy

A Thank you from Carol

Giving Children Hope received a ‘Thank You’ letter Carol Guscott, a partner in our shipment to Jamaica.

I thank you! I thank you for sending to the people of Jamaica, the patients of the Annotto Bay [Regional] Hospital, medicines and hospital equipment and supplies. The generosity has touched me at the core of my soul. We pray that God continue to greatly bless you, and bless others through you.

Thankfully yours,

Carol Guscott
