We had a pretty good week in our Holiday Project Fundraising efforts... In the past week we have brought in $1,925... Which brings our total so far to $5700! That still leaves us with a little over $3,000 to raise in the next 5 weeks... but I'm pretty sure we can do it!
In addition to raising the last bit of funds, I am in serious need of backpacks. If you can supply a backpack, or if your child's class would like to do a backpack drive, let me know! I would really like to be able to deliver the one thing Kidane Mihret has asked me for. I would also like to supply each of our sponsorship kids with a new backpack.
Looking for a gift idea????
For that person on your list that has 'everything', I still have 10 2014 wall calendars available...
For a $50 donation, I would be happy to send one out to your loved one with a card saying that a donation has been made in their honor to make the holidays brighter for orphans in Ethiopia... Contact me with mailing info, and to check on availability.
For a $35 donation, I can mail a card saying that a donation has been made in your loved ones honor to make the holidays brighter for orphans in Ethiopia... Contact me with mailing info.
