Alpine Initiatives Update

Hello from Kenya,

I'm writing to invite you to check out Alpine Initiatives' new web site. It's been online for about a week but we officially launched it today. We're already in Africa, working on the same project we started last October and this year you'll be able to follow our progress through journal entries, as internet is becoming more accessible in Kenya.

We need your help to raise money! (25 G's to be exact!) so please log on to www.alpineinitiatives.org, make a donation through the Pay Pal link and try to convince as many people as possible to do the same. We'll reach our goal if 1250 people make a $20 donation. Mikey, Lisa and I will be working on the Amani Community Home for children orphaned by Aids/HIV for the next five weeks and if we can raise all the money needed to complete the project, the kids will start moving in in mid-August, just in time the school year.

100% of the donations are used to hire local workers and buy the materials needed for the home and garden.

Thank-you for your time.

JP Auclair

All of NS should donate.. then we should go help build stuff.. there's plenty of hands.

So stoked on this JP, you're putting a great name on skiers and doing something amazing for these kids.

no place in the world like africa. its like stepping back 50 years in most parts, because as a whole, so little has changed there in that time.

Skiing is such a rich sport... this is a good use of some of that money. Instead of buying your next tall-tee maybe send them $20....
