 The orphanage being built on the slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro, Tanzania is being named KIM JONES HOUSE AT GIHON SPRINGS. Kim Jones, who died in November 2010 of breast cancer, was a friend of the Foundation for Hope in Africa. She had a love for orphaned children and made a trip to Brazil to help a local orphanage in 2005. Kim, her husband Casey, and their business Wynn Jones & Associates, have been consistent donors to the Foundation for many years.
Upon her death, family, friends, and Wynn Jones & Associates donated money which will cover about half of the cost of the orphanage. As recognition for their generosity, FFHIA Directors unanimously voted to name the new facility after Kim. The family was honored by the gesture. It is in her memory that we name this orphanage KIM JONES HOUSE AT GIHON SPRINGS. The Board of Directors wishes to thank Casey, the Jones family, and Wynn Jones & Associates for their kindness to orphaned children in Tanzania. We also thank all other donors who have made this project possible. |
