Mr. Estes will donate $5 for every CD sold to purchase one Mosquito/Malaria net for a child in Africa – Yes, for each CD sold, a child’s life will be saved! Additionally, Mr. Estes will donate $4 per CD sold directly to Roosevelt High NHS, as a thank you for helping his foundation save lives!!! NHS will have 500 CDs in which to sell at $15/per, so once they’re gone, they’re gone. Not only is Simon Estes a world famous Opera singer, but his heart is so kind and his generosity is contagious. If you are interested in saving a life in Africa and would like to purchase this $15 CD, please email the TRHS NHS Advisor, Mr. Steve Perkins at [email protected]. Otherwise, keep your ears and eyes open after the holidays to learn more.
