Jill Guindon

SHE DID IT!!! Way to go Jill.  We're so thankful for your willingness to do this, for your dedication to complete the 50 hours, and for your love and support of the albino children.  Jill's Alone fundraiser supported the 200 albino children in Tanzania, to purchase them bed sets (blankets, mattresses, beds, pillows, and mosquito nets).  See below for pics/videos Jill sent us while she was away.

​

For those who sponsored Jill, we are all very thankful for you.

Following are pics and videos Jill sent us during her challenge.

The quest has begun.  Jill has sent us a couple of pics with notes:

It's going to be crazy at night I think.
