Exciting news! 
We have raised approximately $120,000 to date.
Phase II is underway.  This phase will direct donations to the inside of the Center to purchase materials to complete the classroom, North American room, and storage areas. 

TWEP's Donor Reception was held on October 16. TWEP appreciates donations on all levels!
