WATER TANK DONATIONS
My special thanks to my friends and family who donated for a Samoan family that needed a water tank (Advertised by Adel Fruean on Samoa Observer – June 30, 2019).
I started Fundraising on May 23, 2020, and received donations from:
Le Mamea Filifilimaali, Mrs Lesina, and children: Gerardine, Victoria - $500 (Australia)
Kiri Tuioti-Mariner - $50 (Utah)
Grace Ah Mu-Pouesi - $100 (Riverside)
Nelly Ah Mu-Pouesi - $45 (Texas)
Amy Ellsworth - $25 (USA)
Jr. Laupapa - $80 (Seattle)
Diana Garcia-Pouesi - $200 (Riverside)
Namu & Diana.
Donations Refunded - 12/12/2020
Adel Fruean, Samoa Observer, informed me that she has been trying to locate the family since the day I contacted her. After all these months of waiting, Adele wanted to use our donation for other families that need water tanks. I advised her that this donation was for the family in the Newspaper. I was upset because she wrote the article and then she couldn't locate the family from that village? I also contacted the Editor/Samoa Observer (Ken) and there was no response. I felt something fishy was going on. So, I decided to refund the donations. I understand that we are facing difficulties in providing food, etc. for our families because of the pandemic.
Thank you again for your love and kindness,
Be safe and God bless,
Namulauulu Paul Pouesi
