School in Haiti completed !
2012 January
We wanted to share some fantastic news regarding our donation to The Michael Pinball Clemons Foundation last year to build a school. We are happy to report that construction of the school has been completed!
Our donation to the MPCF and Free the Children, in support of their school-building projects remains incredibly valuable. The classroom will provide a bright and positive environment for a brand new cohort of students, allowing these children to have a bright future.
The school is such an integral part of the community and Free The Childrens Nutrition Program is a great example. In the past, most students simply did not have food to bring from home. Now that the school provides them with a daily warm meal they have more time for studies, and are more motivated and energized to learn.
MPCF has made a commitment to build 131 schools for marginalized children in 7 under resourced countries through FTC Adopt a Village development program. In just over two years they have raised funds to build over 90 schools and have made a commitment to FTC to reach their goal within the next 3 years. This incredible effort will provide access to education for 5,240 children overseas.

Jim Williams and Williams Telecommunications donate $7,000.00 to the Eric Trump Foundation.
2011 December
Jim Williams and Williams Telecommunications are proud to donate $7,000.00 to the Eric Trump Foundationd to Fund St. Jude Childrens Research Hospital
St. Jude is unlike any other pediatric treatment and research facility. Discoveries made here have completely changed how the world treats children with cancer and other catastrophic diseases. With research and patient care under one roof, St. Jude is where some of todays most gifted researchers are able to do science more quickly.
St. Jude researchers are published and cited more often in high impact publications than any other private pediatric oncology research institution in America. St. Jude is a place where many doctors send some of their sickest patients and toughest cases. A place where cutting-edge research and revolutionary discoveries happen every day. St. Jude is the only pediatric cancer research center where families never pay for treatment not covered by insurance. No child is ever denied treatment because of the familys inability to pay.
