It’s time to be making goals for the upcoming year, and my family has some crazy ones for o8!
Here they are, and we will need your help to meet them:
1. 100 Backpacks hand delivered to the children of Terrazas, TJ, Mexico. (cost = 10.80 + taxes = 12.25 per bag)… Our plan is to Partner with DCS in having the bags filled, and then the o8 team to TJ will deliver them.
2. Funding one house build for a family that needs it in Terrazas, TJ. (cost from the ground up = $5500)…
3. 20 Fairly traded soccer balls to hand deliver to the children of Terrazas and ‘The River’ (cost yet to be finalized).
‘Speak up for the people who have no voice,
for the rights of all the down-and-outers.
Speak out for justice!
Stand up for the poor and destitute!’ Proverbs 31:8 & 9 – The Message
Here’s to a great new year, and sharing faith, hope and love in practical ways!
