SLIM has produced and/or received over 100 posters from caring individuals who want all those who are working with the public to know that they are in our thoughts and prayers each and every day of this challenging pandemic. A response of appreciation was received from Ms. Fanny of the CKHA. “The posters are so beautiful. We have put them up at the entrance where the staff are screened upon coming to work.

So far she has been able to raise $200! Thanks for making an incredible difference Penny.
