Hola World,

We all know the power of online support but as many volunteers and especially the military know only too well: There are some things you must do in person. There are times you just need to show up and be willing.

I've been lucky to work with organizations like the United Methodist Women, United Methodist Men, UMCOR, Church World Service and the Salvation Army. Thanks to these hard working and dedicated organizations I have sent most of my worldly possessions accumulated over the years in support of flood victims, battered women, homeless children and other people in the United States and all around the world.

I was lucky to graduate from Knox College High School in Jamaica and attend Miami-Dade College in the USA at age 15. My journey here in the States has not been smooth
