Pediatric Services in Remote Areas of Argentina

Dear Friend,
Your constant help allows us to provide medical services and nutrition to thousands of children in rural schools of Argentina. Thanks to these programs supported by your help, critical heath problems related to nutrition deficiencies, dentistry problems and skin diseases are being gradually decreased.

These programs have a profound effect on the children and their communities located in remote areas in which the access to a hospital or medicine is virtually non-existent; and through them children are touched in an incredible way by having access to basic needs and by transforming the communities and making them believe that there is hope.

However, these programs need to be performed constantly in a regular basis to ensure their effectiveness.

On March 14, GlobalGiving.org is matching at 30% all online donations up to $1,000 per donor per project!  In addition to the 30% match, GlobalGiving is offering additional prizes to the project that raises the most funds that day and to the project that receives donations from the most individual donors!

I will appreciate your donation to our project to support our health care and nutrition programs: $10 provides breakfast for a month for a child and $25 covers the pediatric service and medicine too.

THANKS for helping the children to have an opportunity for a better future and for trusting in our foundation to be the liaison between the children who needs our help and yourselves.

Hi!

We want to share with you this wonderful news. This year we will be able to include Ophthalmology and Dental care to the current pediatric services that we are providing for underprivileged children in Argentina. Vision and Dental Care are critical and these services will cover proper treatment, preventive education, medicine and accessories.

If you want to be able to help children who are not as fortunate as ours, and who really need our helping hand, there is an easy way to do it.

 Are you planning or do you know anyone who is going to participate in a running, swimming or cycling competition?

 Although your main purpose can continue to be the same, you can now add an extra motivation, a new cause for which you want to do it: Do it to help more children!

 Anyone who wishes  to compete in sports  events on behalf of Sumando Manos Foundation, regardless of the country where the athlete lives in, please call 1-305-938-0553 or write to contactenos@sumandomanos.com.

 It will not mean additional work for you. We will manage your Fundraising Campaign and you and your friends will turn into effective and impacting online fundraisers.

 Some of our friends already did it: Jorge and Martin Kupferman, Claudio Vilas, Vanessa Ramirez and Elizabeth Jewett. Thanks to them and their friends, more than US$ 5000 were raised to support our charity projects.

 Sumando Manos provides  help to more than 7000 children on 14 provinces in Argentina on projects that also include health, education, nutrition, infrastructure and clothing. For more information visit www.sumandomanos.org.

People living in the US wishing to make an instant donation of $10, can text GIVE 8535 to the number 80088.

THANKS for helping the children have an opportunity for a better future.
