At this moment the fund is at $12,265 which is nice but nowhere near what it should be. The problem is that only 163 people have donated so far. This is pitiful compared to how many have benefitted from police presence when visiting the island. Every gift, no matter the size, helps. Everyone needs to participate. If you visit this forum, read these threads and are someone who claims to care about Sint Maarten and its people, then there is no excuse for not contributing to this worthwhile cause. If everyone here gave, even at the $20, $30, $40 level, the total would add up quickly. Please participate and do it now. Don't put it off till later.
