On November 30th Colleen and Tom Reilly of Belmar, New Jersey hosted a "Project Jamaica" cocktail party to begin the Christmas Season. Guests were invited to bring a new or gently used pair of shoes to be sent to Above Rocks. Over 600 pairs were collected and a great time was had by all!
Mrs. Reilly's 6th grade class of Saint Rose, Belmar raised money to ship the shoes. Students sold hand-made aprons, babysat and sponsored movie nights. The students also donated 1,000 colored pencils for the kids in Jamaica.
