charities in St. Petersburg?

[Margo Watson]

Please try the orphanage/rehabilitation center for children called Dom
Miloserdiya in St. Petersburg, I'm sure they would love a donation of
books.

They have volunteers that bring meals over every day, and it's possible that
one of them might be able to pick up the books and bring them over.

This is their website: http://www.domnus.org/

*I am an AIDS/LifeCycle participant. On June 5 I will start the 545-mile,
7-day ride from SF to LA.

I have set a goal of raising $10,000 for the San Francisco AIDS Foundation
before the start of the ride.
