$100 by Halloween !!!



I've been taking a breather since we had our big push up to the 4th of July to get all of the older kids up to at least $50 in their grants.  It was incredible to see so many people step up and help "my kids" grow those grants !! 
I thank you all from the bottom of my heart !!!

As you may recall - we started last fall, with 176 children, over the age of 6, who had zero in their grants.

By January, we had zeroed ALL of the zeros. 

Our new goal was to get them all to $20 by Easter.

We were successful.

Many of the children have far exceeded our goals :)

At Easter, I listed 98 children - the new goal - to get them all up to or over $50 by July 4th.

We ALMOST did it !!! 

Every single one of the "original zeros" DOES now have at least $50.

Out of the 98 children listed in April, all but 11 of them reached at least $50.

Since Easter - EIGHT children made the move to the "My Family Found Me" page on Reece's Rainbow !!!  
Eight children have families working towards bringing them home.

THIRTY-FIVE of the original zeros have moved to the MFFM page  !!!!!!!

Amazing !!!!

Is our work done ?

No.

It never will be, unfortunately.


Will that stop us ?


Nope !!  :):)


SO - the NEW goal - which you may have guessed by now - is to get every single child over the age of six up to at least


$100
by
Halloween - October 31st


Can we do it ?


Pretty sure we can !!  :)


There are currently 302 children over the age of 6 who have donation buttons.


146 of them have MORE than $100.


That leaves 156 with LESS then $100.


Most have at least $50.


A couple have zero.


A few have less than $50.


They are ALL waiting in an orphanage or institution.


Waiting to be saved. Waiting for a family.


Let's help those families.  


Show them that someone cared about their child before they even found them.


Show them that we saw their worth enough to help them out.

Please - stay tuned - I will list all of the children with less than $100 within the next few days.  


Then the fun will begin, and we'll start watching those grants grow again !!!
