RYONI SCHOUTEN

The story of Ryoni & SLF is an amazing one...

On one night I went out with friends and I found a large amount of money on the floor together with some keys and cards. I decided to quickly put it in my pocket, so that I could try and find the owner once I got home or bring all of it to the police station. Luckily through the internet I found Ryoni and invited him to my house to pick up his belongings.

We had a talk about what we both did in life and the conversation also led to the Sheryl Lynn Foundation. After I had given him all is belongings I drove him to the metro station, where he would take the metro home. But before he got out of the car he gave me his lost money back again. Ryoni decided to donate his money I found to the projects of the Sheryl Lynn Foundation! Without even knowing me, he insisted on it... Amazing story, isn't it?!

So this is to say thank you to Ryoni Schouten for his donation and his instant faith in the Sheryl Lynn Foundation.

JOOP ELIAS

Joop Elias is a wonderful man who freely offered to be the photographer at the launching of the Sheryl Lynn Foundation. He gave us all the pictures he made without any cost and, because of this, gave us some beautiful memories.

Joop is the official photographer of the Miss Netherlands Organisation and he also made the portrait picture of Sheryl that you can find here. You can visit Joop's website and see his work at www.johanfotostudio.nl.

Many thanks goes out to Joop, who is known to be a very kind person.

ANSELMO 'CHINO' PADERES

Anselmo Paderes is not only a great help in keeping an eye on our projects in the Philippines, but we found out that he also secretly donated an amount of money straight to the Sta.Fe-Itum Elementary School to help finish our project at this school.

Anselmo currently works in the Netherlands to earn money for his family in the Philippines and for his own future. Therefore his earnings are very important to him, but still he chose to help out the Sta.Fe-Itum Elementary School.

In practise it proofs that there are always some unexpected expenditures to a project and some extra money will be necessary in the end. Anselmo provided the Sta.Fe-Itum Elementary School with this money and for this we are most grateful to him.

Thank you very much, Anselmo!
