  Immanuel College have supported the Mangos Family in so many ways since Sabrina's tragic passing.  Sabrina was passionate about her music, and we hoped the school could use this money to assist the music program.

  Our first achievement was to donate monies to the Women's & Children's Hospital.  Amanda and her friends (New York Marathon Fundraiser) had inspired us with their efforts to raise monies on Sabrina's behalf a little girl they never meet.  The Foundation felt a great sense of pride and achievement when we handed our first cheque to the WCH Foundation for $10,000 on what would have been Sabrina's 13th Birthday.
