The day before Thanksgiving we entered our offices at the Magnolia Tree Earth Center to learn that all of our technology equipment was stolen! We are heart broken about this situation because it is a great loss to our children, the members of DIVAS for Social Justice. We are reaching out to our community for monetary donations and equipment. We lost the following items:
5 IMac Computers
2 Printers
Canon Powershot SX10IS Camera
Panasonic PVGS500 Video Camera
Canon Digital SLR Rebel
Rode Shot Gun Mic
Panasonic DVD Player
Ultra 2 Memory Card Set
We would also like to take this time to thank all of the individuals who have reached out to us in our time of need.
Sincerely,
Clarisa & Sha Sha
