Thanks you for your consideration

DONATE THIS WAY FOR SPECIFIC FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!! The cost of shipping 116 pounds of things to our friend cost almost 4 times as much as the items. REALLY STUPID.

Cash is always a more helpful commodity than anything else in disasters or famines, or even for your local food bank.

Moderators, do you think it would be OK to PIN this thread? TIA

I also want everyone to understand this is a humanitarion effort in time of crisis.

This is not my regular business i have an enitirely different website for that.

www.shopndropgroceryirmaassist.com is the website link you need to click on to help in this emaegency situation. www.shopndropgrocerystbarts.com will also work as i modified that website to assist and they are both linked.

I am working with Grand Marche to get vouchers for the amount you donate that you can either assign a recipient or we will find a family for you.

i have a local foundation that is sourcing out families in need and the vouchers are being directly given to them.

Absolutely no over head cost 100% of your donation money is going to the families i am just charging an addtinal 5% to process your credit card so i dont incur that cost.

Also remember guys there are two things happening here needy families are getting the help they need including your friends & families in addition grand marche employs at-least over 100 people if we send them customers with the vouchers to purchase we are also saving some of these peoples jobs as they have to go to work .

So i strongly encourage you to consider this. Once you donate i have a private Facebook group yiou will be invited to it if you on facebook where you will get daily updates on how your donation money is being utilized.

If someone is skeptical it is ok . Our first round of donations are going out next week then you will see how the program is working.

Sxm is my second home time to put my business needs aside as there won't be no tourism for a while and join to help the community needs..

Thanks
jeannie

Sure wish I would have done this instead of spending $400 in shipping costs.....so dumb.

I really encourage folks to donate to this cause. We already know Jeannie to be a reputable businesswoman. No one is making any money off this venture, and groceries will be provided to those most in need.

Especially if you were going to be vacationing in SXM in the near future and had to cancel, please consider spending some of that money on this humanitarian effort.

This is a very good program and I second all Linda has already said.

And if you do decide to donate and want to earmark your gift to a specific individual or family, please make sure you have last names and contact information. Jeannie reached out to me and a few others this morning trying to locate one of the specific recipients and we're hoping they're able to make contact. The on island helpers in this program really don't have the time or resources to play detective on top of what they're already doing.

And for all you people who are lucky enough to receive unanticipated refunds from one source or another from your cancelled vacation plans, and don't know what to do with them, this would be a great program to use them on. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Also recommend this donation site. The people need our help and Jeannie will get the food vouchers to the neediest islanders.

I have signed up 2 recipients already. Jeannie makes this very easy. I have never used her Shop and Drop service myself but she has always gotten such great reviews on this site I felt very confident working with her. She has been wonderful to work with. AND THE MOST Amazing thing is so is getting NO financial benefit herself.
I spoke to one of the recipients today and told him he would be hearing from her and he cried.
God Bless you Jeannie and all the people that need food on the island!

I've donated and plan to continue ... this is so typical of you, Jeannie - a fabulous way for us to help. Everyone: this is a very "hands on" way to give back and help our friends!

GOD BLESS YOU ! I will be sending more $ soon...again thank you for all your efforts and hard work

I guess I should have bookmarked it in the beginning with my original donation because it took me a while to find this post, but having just received another small refund to my credit card for cancelled SXM travel, I wanted to make sure it went to someone who will truly benefit in SXM.

Again, thank you, Jeannie, for your efforts in this program. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Thank you Pat .. I sent you the info on who received your first donation grocery vouchers.

Cheers
