Fundraising Scares Me!


I've said it before and I'll say it again, fundraising scares me.  I will fully admit that it's a selfish scary.  I don't want to fail, it's personal.  Don't worry, I realize that I need to get over myself and focus on the end result.  I did just that yesterday and launched my latest capital campaign.  I am hoping to provide shoes to 150 precious little friends in Ethiopia.  

The picture above means SO much to me.  I found these shoes on the ground on my first trip to Ethiopia in 2011.  When I got the owner a new pair, he cried.  Then I cried and my life was changed, seriously changed!  In March 2013, I saw that precious boy again and he has grown SO much in 2 years, he needs shoes again.  I won't let him down.

$6,000 needs to be raised to provide 300 pairs of shoes for 150 precious children (2 pairs per year, $20 a pair).  If you would like to donate a pair please click right HERE and you can see the donation page and a little more explanation.   If you don't like to donate online, email me at reachinghiskids@gmail.com for information on how to send in a check.  All donations are tax-deductible.
