Album Name: Suitcases to Go - St. Petersburg Halloween Return to Albums
Album Date: Nov 10, 2006
Description: One of our international projects this year is to provide assistance to several orphanages in St. Petersburg, Russia, in Peru and in Honduras. We have received a District Simplified Grant to provide vitamins for these children. The club members are providing non-prescription medical supplies and treats for the children. We send these supplies in suitcases with friends who are headed to those destinations. Our suitcases to St. Petersburg included candy and party supplies for a big Halloween party.

There was also money to shop for fresh fruit and vegetables. The children don't get these often enough. Canned fruits were also important because the orphanage doesn't have a refrigerator.
Wrap the Mummy!
The mummy is complete. Good things are in the treat bag.
Russian children don't usually celebrate Halloween, but they certainly love to dress up.
