Benefactors
The Jaden Foundation has been blessed with some wonderful and generous friends.

David Rhein from Brookline, MA, USA was a recent visitor to the Belize Jungle Dome and
made a donation to the Jaden Foundation.

Another recent donation was made by Sandra Jones. She is from Prince Rupert, British
Columbia, Canada where she is the Principal of Charles Hays Senior Secondary School.
Sandra has visited Belize twice and plans to facilitate future fundraising with her
student at home. Muchos gracias Sandy!

Al Romao and John Lenaerts were recent guests to the Belize Jungle Dome. They live
in New Jersey, where John is a Shamanic Practitioner and Al is an Account Executive
for a woman's Handbag company called Etienne Aigner. After returning from their
Belize vacation they decided to support the Jaden Foundation & Al is working hard to
find additional funding for future projects. Thank you so much guys!

Our old family friend Willem Vreats from Holland has also assisted The Jaden Foundation
recently and is still planning a charity BBQ for the Foundation together with his
friends (maybe summer 2006?) Dankjewel Willem!

Allen & Ann Simpson from Edinburgh, Scotland are the sponsors for the Esquivel
brothers: Elvis, Walter, Jose and Wilbert for the 2005/2006 school year. Allen
& Ann have four grown-up sons (including our dear friend John “the architect”).
They are thrilled to be supporting four boys yet again. Ann jokingly said that
she’s also very happy to finally have an Elvis in her life

Jay & Jasper Landers from Summersville, MA, USA will be the 2005/2006 sponsors
for the brothers Wilson & Mynor Esquivel and for the sisters Sulma and Mariella
Butz. Jay and Jasper were recent guests of the Belize Jungle Dome

Candice McCarthy from Prince Rupert, BC (Karen’s mum) recently came to Belize and
fell in love with the local children (like we all do) she decided to make a donation
to our general fund to pay for school transport and other costs

Hans Nooter collected a large sum of money from his friends and colleagues in Aruba.
All the bar staff of the Plaza, Scandals and Cocoa put aside $1 a day of their tip
money for one month and donated it to the Jaden Foundation. Hans Nooter also gave
very generously himself for the 2004/2005 school year. The “Aruba donation” has paid
for most of the 2004/2005 school fees and school transport costs. We are very grateful
for the hard work that Hans has put into getting these donations
There have been many guests of the Belize Jungle Dome who have given to the Jaden Foundation
Mike Taylor and his family brought toys & books for the children when they came for
their vacation at the Belize Jungle Dome. Colleen & Jerry sent us a large box of running
shoes & the Rochester medical team (from an organization called “Intervol”) brought
huge amounts of educational software, school supplies, toys and clothes
