Christmas Fundraiser: Getting Close
Here is a quick snapshot of the original vision, and a video with an expanded vision.
10 days till Christmas. Time continues to move quickly; Holiday parties, shopping, gift wrapping, travel, etc!…whoops, I forgot about the eggnog and the other “cool” holiday Starbucks coffee-drinks. Through the busyness of day-to-day life, the HELP tribe has been able to raise $4000 for our Christmas Fundraiser. We only need $1200 more to fully fund The Chicken Project. This is so exciting!
100 kids in Zimbabwe will have meat in their diet in 2010. 1) Thanks for your generosity! 2) We still have some work to do. $1200 in 10 days, we can do it! Do us a favor; please Facebook this link, Tweet it, email it to your friends and ask them to donate. $10, $20, or $100, every bit helps us reach our goal.
BTW: The pictures that you see are the kids that will get the chickens, so they can have meat in their diet on a consitient basis.

Update On Zimbabwe
Steven, who is our partner in Africa and works with Servlife, recently spent time in Zimbabwe where he is working with a local pastor.
While Steven was in Zimbabwe he recorded a podcast with three local Zimbabweans, which includes a doctor and a teacher. You can listen to that podcast here. The stories are heart-breaking but also filled with hope.
We are working with Steven and Pastor John to help end local poverty in Zimbabwe. You can also help:
1. Donate Funds: Click here and you can donate via Paypal or you can send a check. 100% of all donations will be sent to Steven who will purchase food in S. Africa and take it to our contact in Zimbabwe to feed the orphans and greater community.
2. Sponsor a child: Pastor John in Zimbabwe runs two orphanages with a total of 84 kids. 50 of those kids still needs a monthly sponsor. You can sponsor a child by clicking here.
3. Spread the news: Please link this story to your blog, add a banner to your website, join and invite friends on our Facebook page and follow-us and encourage others to follow-us on Twitter.
Once again we want to thank you for your support as we continue to launch this non-profit and serve those in poverty.
