47





UPDATED !!!




PLEASE SEE THE UPDATED LIST OF CHILDREN WHO STILL NEED TO LEAP OVER THE $20 WALL !!!




I have issued a challenge - I will match $ for $ every donation that gets a child up to $20. For example - if you donate $10 to a child, I will donate $10 to that same child, or another child with less than $20. If you donate $50 - unfortunately, I can only match the amount that got them up to $20. I will keep matching until every child listed below is up to $20. Please do what you can !!





With a couple of days to go before our deadline - Easter - we still have 39 children aged over 6 with less than $20 in their accounts. A MUCH better number than the 125 we started with !! Many of the 39 still have less than $10 - but I just KNOW we can get those grants up and over those walls - of first $10, and then $20 !!




Here are the 39 - it's simple - click on their name, and donate away !! I've listed them with those with the least first - please, if you can, help them out, and if you can't, please share - get those names and faces out their so their new families can find them !!





I NEED $15 !!!



















I NEED $14 !!!








































































































I NEED $10 !!!

























































































Please - do what you can for these kids - they need ALL the help they can get !!




THANK YOU !!!!!

  1. I need to email RR - I sent $15 last night to each the kids with only $5(except Ceasar who was already at $20) - but for some reason it is not posting for Walter, Brittany or Christine. My paypal says the transactions are complete, so these 3 kids should actually all be at $20 now also.

    1. That IS weird !! Yes - definitely e-mail RR and see if the donation is showing up at their end - must be a glitch in their system somehow. I'll keep watching to see if the totals change for the 3 kids ! Thanks SO much !!!

  2. Found your blog through Micah Six Eight. LOVE the work you are doing for the older kids.

    I (sadly) noticed that Nico and Sasha were on the list. Last year someone was doing some fundraising for them through Project Hopeful and had managed to raise a few thousand for each boy. They had a family commit, but, it looks like that family had to back out for some reason. I checked and the boys are no longer listed on Project Hopeful...I just wrote project hopeful to see if the boys could be relisted (and see if their grant money is still available). It would be great if they could go from zero back to a few thousand!

  3. I donated to Erin, Ross and Donald. I think I've got them over the $20 goal, though, I may not have done the calculations right with the 10% that goes to the Voices of Hope fund. Still, they should be over or a lot closer!

    2. Oh yeah, for matching purposes, it was a total of $41.

      (I deleted the previous comment because I had the math wrong.)
