Guam - As part of the Islandwide Beautification Task Force, the Works Foundation received a $10,000 donation from JMHS to help with the revitalization of the Archbishop Felixberto Flores Memorial Park in Tumon. Lieutenant Governor Ray Tenorio's wife and chairwoman of the works foundation Attorney Naoko Shimizu said, "Thousands and thousands of island residents remember Archbishop Flores, and I think it was very sad that this focal point down in Tumon where every person who visits Guam passes through has been sort of in a ruin, and everyone who has passed through it recently see it has turned gold and it looks really beautiful and I think that's how we need to honor our past and also present but especially our past leaders into our community," she said.

The project should be completed by the end of the October.
