$2,000 goal
On June 28th, my husband and I will be bringing a boy named Juan to our home from Colombia to live with us through the non-profit organization Project 143. Project 143 allows children who are surrounded by war and poverty to enjoy a summer as children in a family where they are loved. We hope to help raise their spirits, confidence, and independence while teaching them practical life skills and a little English in the process.
We will be covering the costs for meals, family trips, activities, and daily expenses. As a private music instructor, I will also be donating all of my May lesson earnings to this cause. We are asking for your support in paying the program fees ($3250 per child) and airfare within the US (approximately $1800 total for the children and a chaperone). We will also be looking for donated/loaned items such as sporting items, games, gently-used clothes, and toys.
Thank you for your help!
