In 2010 Sherry Fine provided a small sum of money to help Juliet Laizer establish a primary school. Juliet thanked Sherry by naming the school after her, Sherry Fine Academy. Juliet went on to establish yet another school, JoAnn McManus Academy, serving children living in poverty in Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania.
Impoverished & underserved children, children with special needs.
