We start with 163

UPDATED JANUARY 21ST

So here we have it - the January 1st, 2013 list of all the older children with less than $100 in their grants.  I don't have anything specific planned as yet for getting those grants grown - and I think we need a little time to recover from the Angel Tree - but here they are - let's see what we can do in 2013 !!

So, there we have it - all the older children with less than $100 in their grants as we start this new year !!

 

A few are pretty close to leaping the wall !!

 

We have a total of 163 with less than $100, including 34 with a big, fat ZERO !

 

I'm not setting any specific goals for now, not trying to get them over by a certain date...yet !

 

I've split them into categories, so maybe we can work on a few at a time, to make our job easier ?

 

For now - take a look - see their faces - read their profiles - there are many new listings - beautiful new faces - all who are in desperate need of money - and, most of all - a family.

 

Please, look into their eyes.

 

Share them.

 

Donate !!

From Angels to Zeros

The craziness of the Reece's Rainbow Angel Tree is over for another year - what a blast it was !!!  There were 217 children on the Angel Tree this year - and I am happy to report that 148 of them reached or surpassed their $1000 goal  !!  Better yet - TWELVE children now have families working towards their adoption !!   Now - these are the numbers as of this morning - they will change over the next few days, as there are still checks that haven't yet been applied to the accounts - anything post dated by 12/31 will count towards the Angel Tree. So - we should know in a few days the final totals - which, I'm pretty sure, will be mind blowing !!! 

 

The highest amount raised so far for just ONE child, is $15022.50  !!!  

Meet Ivan !!

His total grant including the Angel Tree donations is almost $20,000  !!

 

Please - go HERE and see all of the wonderful children who have benefited from the Angel Tree this year.

 

Please - share their faces - get them some exposure

and help find their families !!!

 

NOW - it's time to get back to "my" kids, and get a new list of older children with zero, or less than $100 in their grants !!

 

Let the New year begin !!!!

 

 

 

 

 

Two little girls

Please meet Channah and Angelia.

 

       

 

Two little girls in desperate need of a family.

 

Two little girls living in different countries, seemingly nothing in common.

 

Two little girls without a mommy or daddy.

 

Two little girls destined to spend their lives unloved.

 

Channah is 10 years old. She had cerebral palsy, but other than that takes care of herself, manages all of her everyday needs, and as you can see in the picture, seems like any other 10 year old girl.  Channah lives in an orphanage, and is lucky enough to attend the local special education school. She has some delays, which are probably due to orphanage life. She loves wearing dresses, listening to music and dancing. She also likes to play ball. Her favorite colors are pink and green - and she hates to be ignored !!  She is just a typical 10 year old girl, longing for attention, and someone to love her !

 

Angelia is 11 years old. She has Down Syndrome, and has lived in a mental institution for 5 years now.  Despite her surroundings, she remains strong and healthy, which is quite a testament to her character, as families that have adopted from there have horror stories to tell about the place. Angelia likes to play with toys, and is affectionate and interacts with others. She has no health problems, other than some strabismus. Her life could be so very different, given a family to love her !!

 

Two little girls.

SO different, and yet so alike.

Two little girls wishing for only one thing.

A family.

 

Like all of the other children available for adoption internationally, the main thing standing between them and their forever family is money.

 

Channah and Angelia are among a group of older children who were blessed to be part of the Angel Tree Fundraiser at Reece's Rainbow.

 

Not all that long ago, they had zero in their grants.

 

Now, they have a chance to grow those grants by as much as $1000, through the efforts of the Reece's Rainbow Christmas Warriors.

 

I was able to get Buddy's grant up to $1000.

 

Now, I'm shouting for Channah and Angelia.

 

Can you help ??

 

Two little girls.

 

 

 

 

 

Two little girls looking for love.

 

Please help them.

 

Click on their names.

 

CHANNAH ($671)       ANGELIA ($500)

 

Donate.

Share.

Please help them get up to their $1000 goal by the end of the year !

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looking back

I have been neglecting "my" kids recently, because of the Angel Tree Fundraiser, since November 1st. SO happy that I helped get Buddy up to his $1000 goal - plus a few more dollars when I get a couple of checks mailed in :) 

There are still many many children on the Angel Tree that haven't yet made their goal, and they only have until December 31st !!  Please - help if you can !! Pick a child - any child - and drop a few dollars in their grant !!

 

ANGEL TREE 2012

 

I took look back at the list of children we were trying to get up to $100 by Halloween.

 

I have updated their totals to reflect where they are at right now

 

LOOK at all the red !!

 

See how many have leapt that $100 wall - and then some !!

 

Several have been blessed with some wonderful donations - take a look !!!

Sadly, there are still many children who did not fly over that $100 wall.

 

There are also many many newly listed children who have ZERO in their grants.

 

I will be coming up with a list of ALL of the older children with less than $100 in their grants, and will get back to yelling for them as the New Year begins.

 

WATCH THIS SPACE !!!
