Donation information can be found here:
www.nnff.org/nnff_donations.htm
If I can get enough people interested in a raffle (to raise at least $30 to make it worth while) the winner will get a box of english goodies. If you would like to be entered into the raffle please donate in memory of Margaret Dolan, I am going to ask the lady who receives the donations to forward me a list of the donators names.
Thank you to everyone who is making a donation... it is a for a very good cause and one that has become very close to my heart.
