Roswell, GA- Queen of Angels Catholic School donated high quality educational books and school supplies benefiting the Filipino children and teachers of Mindanao.  Since May 2006, Queen of Angels has faithfully partnered with GFI supporting its Library Development and Educational Resource Assistance (LDERA) program.  "We are excited to be contributing to your cause and knowing that they are continuously enjoyed by children helping them become active readers and learners.  We believe that we all benefit from it.  It's truly a win-win program for both the school and your organization." - Julie Smith, Coordinator, Queen of Angels    
 
17 balikbayan box nos. 262-278 were packed by volunteers and shipped through Phoenix Cargo (PC 2001) to be received by Jocelyn Robles, GFI Mindanao Outreach Coordinator for distribution.  Shipment funding was made possible by Cross of Life Lutheran Church, Combined Federal Campaign donors and friends of GFI.
