Hello, I am a young women who has been called by God to offer my services to people who are less fortunate than myself. I am a student in the process of trying to raise enough funds to fulfill my mission as a volunteer at an orphanage in Ghana, Africa this summer. My duties will include teaching the children basic english, math, and reading. I will also take care of the children, play games with them, help prepare meals, keep the facility clean and most importantly give my helping hands and heart. My  goal is to continue to volunteer after receiving my nursing degree so that I may also volunteer in their hospitals. Ultimately , I will love to help fund an orphanage there in hopes that the children will have a brighter future. The cost of the program and flight is quite pricey totaling approximatly $3,500. I will like to start a fundraiser in order to help with the payment. All checks and money orders can be made out directly to the volunteer organization. Please contact me for further details in regards to this project and it's good cause.

Thank you in advance for caring and your help.

I am training for the Nike Women's Marathon in San Francisco this October with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society's Team in Training (TNT).  Team in Training is a National Organization that raises funds while training for and competing in marathons globally.  I am training in honor of one of my very good friend's father's, Neil Cuthbertson, who was recently diagnosed with Leukemia.

Any amount that you donate will get me one step closer to my goal of raising $3900, and will get the society one step closer to their goal of finding a cure and helping those who are affected by blood born cancers!

You can visit my official fundraising page online HERE to make your TAX DEDUCTIBLE donation.  This page is run by the society and all funds donated through this link go DIRECTLY to the society, so you can rest assured your money is safe and is being used for what you are intending it to be used for.

For businesses that would like to donate: I will be wearing the name/logo of any business who donates more than $500; In addition, the business who makes the LARGEST donation: I will wear your company's hat/visor for training, to fundraising events, and on RACE DAY!!

I'd like to thank you in advance for your help!

Alex is still having pain but we did find out he has to have gallbladder surgery. Please pray over this because he is really scared and I cannot console him. I started a new job which is going okay but it does not pay what I am used to. They also call you off a lot in between projects so it can be frustrating. I am still behind in my rent so please pray about that. I also have a minifundraiser again this weekend which I hope goes well as I need to raise at lease 250 dollars. My health is doing okay but I have an infected spider bite which is causing the blues. Good news my daughter made me a grandmother again as she had my 10th grandchild on Mother's Day. He was 3 pounds 9 ozs. and 16 inches long. He is doing fine but he will be in the hospital for another month.

Two easy ways to do this:

2. Or, if you want to start a separate thread - make a new page.

Either way is good - the important thing is your participation. On Aidpage, people support each other by speaking out and by paying attention to each other - as simple as that.
