Last time we seeked for your help, asking for collaboration in our effort gathering funds for acquiring the bus we need to fulfill our kids transport demands by inviting you to participate in the Globalgiving Bonus Day. This time we want to let you know our marvelous results. Thanks to your efforts dear donors, and the GG matching funds, we could gather USD$5.715 on July 12, plus a USD$3.000 donation from a kind donor specially touched by this cause. We haven't reached yet our goal, but soon we will. It is very joyful to see how with all of your support and networking it is possible to transform these vulnerable children's living conditions into better ones and make the world a safer place for nurturing our kids.
Now the good news is that Fundacion Ninos de los Andes' project "Give at-risk Colombian Children a Safe Home" has been selected as GlobalGiving's Project of the Month for August 2017! The Project of the Month Club is a program Globalgiving set up to pool hundreds of individual’s monthly recurring donations together, to make a monthly donation to one different earth-changing idea. Our work has been selected as this month's high-impact project that will benefit from the Club's donations! GG estimate that this month the Club will raise approximately $11,000 for our project. To them our gratitude in advance! Maybe with this amount we can be closer to the total bus price.
We feel ourselves high honored with this nomination and really wanted to share this big news with you, as invaluable partners of our work. Your big commitment with Fundación Niños de los Andes is so remarkable and inspirational to us!
We also want to thank Globalgiving for giving us the tips, tools and training to improve the effectiveness of our work, making easier our daily challenge changing the lives of many street children in Colombia.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions, comments or ideas at funiandes@yahoo.com
Best wishes,
