The Information

I know this is a shameless plug, but I'm willing to do anything for this cause.


Those of you who knew Ronalee Allen knows that her life was completely devoted to children. So, we are going to build a house in Kenya for 23 children (10 girls and 13 boys ages 5 - 15) who are without a home through Hope for the Nations in her honour!! They are going to put up a plaque at the site, and the house will be in memory of Ronalee..

But its going to cost around $60 000.. so we need YOUR help! 

This will not only pay for the facility, but also for a water well to be dug so that the children will have access to clean water daily. 

If you'd like to help us out, tax Receipts are available.. There are a few ways you can donate

Pay by CHEQUE ... 

1. We (the family) can gather the cheques and mail them to their office OR
2. Individuals can send the cheques directly to their office.
3. Memo line = "memorial for Ronalee Allen"
