St. Alphonsus Schools Alumni Dearborn, MI

Dear Arrows,

If anyone is inclined to assist with earthquake relief in Haiti, there is no shortage of charities to select.  However, if you want to direct your donation for a specific purpose, you may want to consider sending it to Bishop Gumbleton.  As many of you know, he was assistant pastor at St. Alphonsus from 1956-1960.  He has been actively involved with people of Haiti for many years.  In particular, he has been working hard to establish a medical clinic... Klinic Sen Michel... at St. Clare's parish.  Unable to communicate with anyone there at this time, he does not know the status of the people and the structures at the clinic and parish.  One thing that is known, however, is that medical supplies will be desperately needed.  He hopes to be able to go to Haiti soon and deliver supplies.  Any donation you make will be put toward that effort.

If you are able to financially assist him in his endeavors you can send a monetary donation to:

Bishop Thomas Gumbleton  4800 Grand River Ave. Detroit, MI 48208

BUT DO SO IMMEDIATELY as he hopes to leave soon.  Otherwise, you can send your donation to

FONKOZE 50 F Street NW, Washington, DC 20001 and be sure to write KLINIC SEN MICHEL in the memo line of the check.

Go Arrows!
