It was surely a day filled with lots of excitement, smiles and laughter- all in the name of trying to put smiles on the faces of our Palestinian children. Purple Bandage was amazed at the response of the Roshnee Community who so readily accepted the idea and joined in to make a card! We are proud to say that 250 cards were made by our generous parents and children of Roshnee. This was purely a gesture of love and unity embraced by the Roshnee Community.
