Donate a Day for Danger

On both of my trips to Haiti, we had one of the sweetest interpreters working with us. His name is Lesly Danger and is a complete angel. He is so humble and is a hard worker. He helps support his family (parents and younger siblings) and was trying to get a degree at the university when the earthquake hit. School was canceled and Lesly's hopes for the future were put on hold. Brooke Frost, one of our team members this year, came home and couldn't stop thinking about Lesly's situation. She and her husband have decided to take Lesly into their home for the next few years and put him through school here in Provo. They need to get all of his paperwork taken care of and then the goal is for him to take one or two semesters at Nomen Global Language Center so he can pass the TOEFL and then do 4 semesters at LDS Business College to receive an associates degree in business. This is going to be somewhat of a financial strain on the Frost family. It will cost about $25 a day for Lesly to be able to attend school. So they have started a foundation to raise money to help pay for Lesly's education, one day at a time. Click HERE to see the website and read more about Lesly. Just think of the impact we could have in the life of this young man if we all just contribute 1 day to his education.
