MAP Raises the Roof- Once again, Aziza's Place would like to recognize Moms Against Poverty for replacing the leaky roof before the rainy season began. MAP has been a partner of AP for the past three years and we are grateful for all they have done for us.

Janice Juszczak - Janice volunteered with AP from January to April 2010. She has continued to support us from home providing funds to purchase a brand new MacBookPro. This laptop will primarily serve our film program, but will be an enormous asset to our regular program as well.

Stephanie McMahon- Stephanie volunteered from October to January 2010 as an English teacher. We are grateful to her for the great goodies she sent from the U.S. (clothes, beads, footballs, toys, oh my!) Her friend Dominic Afzali who is a lawyer working in Cambodia was generous to bring these donations all the way from California.

Natalie Robbins- Natalie, the Grandmother of Director Ali Robbins, was generous to donate her laptop computer for Aziza's Place administrative needs. We are grateful that she took the plunge and switched to a MacBook, making her the most technologically savvy grandmother around.

Vafa Talieh- Vafa is a long time friend of AP Co-Founder Nader Ebrahimi and has been donating children's vitamins to Aziza's Place for many years. She generously gave a huge box of vitamins, medicine and books to a staff member returning to AP from the U.S. this month.

Sophie Cooper, Margarida Santos, and Riya Gosrani - These three remarkable girls, ages 9 to 11, from South Hempstead High School in London did a fundraiser for Aziza's Place before the end of the school year. Sophie is the daughter of the Aziza Foundation UK Trustee Adam Cooper. We thank them and their supportive classmates for helping AP.
