Who is 'they"? This Mission is not yet finished - new pledges & monies are still coming in. 95 % of monies have been collected. Verification of the monies deposited (5 deposits) with the Cathedral can be readily verified by Mrs. Joan Perrin at the Cathedral - would you like her phone number - toll free for your convenience with an extension number.

There is no mention of my walk formally yet because I wanted to keep the focus on the children, not myself. Why would you even question my honesty in this?

Believe me there will be a formal news release in the near future but I do not have a formal final figure yet - some monies from pledges still need to be collected in Jan. 690 pledges is a lot of people to collect from - many are on holidays etc. Fortunately only 50 left.

Do I have to swear on a Bible & go before a Grand Jury to establish my credibility - I don't think so. People around here know who I am & what I stand for!
