    Japher, Karen Mills and her mother were taking in laundry and washing it by hand for a few pesos. She was the daughter of Safronia and Terry Wayne Raymond Mills, a Canadian who abandoned his pregnant wife in the Phils. They were getting psycological abuse from the husband of Safronia's sister in whose house they were living and just needed their own place. That was Poly House one.

    Poly II, Rigo harvests rice on other people's farms and his wife does housekeeing for us. Together they raised their daughter, Irish, in an abandoned shack with a big hole right in the middle of the floor. If they saved every centavo they made for the next 30 years they could not afford a place.

        Spencer, there is something going on now. Rigo has run out of pesos and has something left to do on his place. I'm going to get the details when we go but I heard it was $75 or something, and who knows what other little stuff remains? I can get you details if you are really interested. So, if you want to help believe me, there's no end to the need. It will be well used. We could also drop it to Karen Mills. She's way to skinny.

        I found this thread about Poly II. The threads about Poly I were lost long ago I think.



        Here's Poly I pics that Zkrib took while on vacation a few years back. The fat guy is our very own Theben.

          It looks like the paypal acct is closed and the check writing to the Philipines is "dodgey'. Let me know what to do.

            One of the big contributers, Aeson, is coming with us and has a paypal acct still methinks. Let me check if its ok with him to deposit to his acct and he could bring it with him. I'll PM him. Hey Spencer, thanks for stepping up.

              That's fine with me. Though it can wait till I'm over there. (God forbid something comes up and I don't make it over there, I don't have any viable method of getting the money over there either.)

                Ok, thanks Aeson. So there's two methods Spencer. Btw the check does work. Not a penny was lost with the check method. The one problem was the two checks we recieved that were in Canadian currency. We have a USD account so they couldn't cash them.

                So, if you send a check and write on it what I suggested in the OP, or send it through paypal when we arrive, that's great. I know all the people involved, wonderful folks whom you are doing a great service.

                In reference to Aeson's suggestion, our departure date is the 18th of this month.

                      So long as I dont need a paypal account myself (which I refuse to do), that sounds easier. The only proble is that its been years since I used it so I have no idea what to do.

                      EDIT OK I looked at paypal online and it looks straight forward. Send me a PM when you arrive and I'll take a shot at it.
