Replacing the Projector & Finance Update
A gentle reminder that we are trying to raise funds to replace one of the broken projectors. We can’t afford to take any money out of operating right now which forces us to wait to order what we require and hope that the price doesn’t go up. Any help you can give us would be much appreciated. Again, a big THANK YOU for your continued support!
