God Bless your brother and what he's doing. I wouldn't insult him with only $10.00 so I'm going to wait until payday (friday) but in addition to the cash donation I'll make then, please have him forward me any requests for presents the kids have. My step-dad was in the Peace Corps for 6 years and my mom and him have been to Equador and Honduras among other places, with a few of their friends offering medical services like dentistry and OB/GYN work and dispensing medicine and food. I know they'd love to help out here - I can promise that. I'll gladly send some cash but I'll also be more than willing to send the little guys/girls some toys - so please, have him send me some wish lists or whatever the kids are into ;-)
