Our Registry: Hearts for Honduras

Among the many special events of 2009, Kelly traveled this spring to La Entrada, Honduras to work with a unique school, grades K-6, whose students have been given a tremendous lift through the work of an organization called Hearts for Honduras.

We cannot shorten the miles these students choose to walk each day to reach the single tiny classroom they share. But together, we can give the experienced volunteers at Hearts for Honduras the resources to break ground on an additional first grade classroom this year.

The gift of education has made each of us who we are today. Your support can help these children grow to be the individuals they deserve to be tomorrow.

Each gift will be acknowledged with a small plaque on the back of a first grader’s chair; a small sign commemorating November 14, 2009 will be affixed to the building as well. Our goal is to have it built by our second anniversary. Donations will be anonymous as to amount, convenient, tax-deductible, and secure.

Those wishing to send a contribution may address it to:

Liberty Corner Church
45 Church Street
Liberty Corner, NJ 07938
Attn: Glen Taylor
Memo line: HFH/Macmanus-Funke

Both of us are inspired by the many examples of citizenship among those we love – not least Susan Gibbons, who first introduced Kelly to Hearts for Honduras, and its disproportionate impact in a community whose poverty need not continue as it has. We invite each of you to consider making an enduring gift to them as your wedding gift to us.
