Hi Friends!
Has it really been three months already and again? Since our last update, the Feed & Educate Children program has continued to thrive, thanks to your consistent kindness. We've ensured that our 120 amazing kids are not only well-fed with three nutritious meals a day but are also engaged and hopeful in the classroom. The foundation you’ve built is strong!
Our Ambitious Vision: Proactive in 2026
We are ready to stop "playing catch-up" and start building a financially sustainable future for the children. For the first time ever, we want to launch into 2026 with confidence, securing the resources before they run out.
To make this a reality, we are setting an ambitious fundraising target: $6,500 before the end of 2025.
This $6,500 will provide 6 months of stability for the entire program:
Supplies for Every Child: Purchasing all essential supplies for every child for the first six months of 2026.
Living Wages for Our Cooks: Guaranteeing a living wage for our three dedicated cooks for the entire first half of the year.
This stability will allow us to start focusing on long-term sustainability, like launching a veggie garden to reduce food costs and actively seeking other long-term financial partnerships.
A Special Goal: End-of-Year Celebration
Every day for these children can be challenging, and they deserve a moment of pure joy. We would love to put on a huge End-of-Year Celebration to recognize Christmas, Thanksgiving, and other holidays.
We are seeking an additional $2,123.48 to fund this special event, which will include:
Food they've likely never tasted before.
Crackers, party games, and fun celebrations.
The Power of GivingTuesday
You can help us achieve both of these targets! Please save the date for Tuesday, December 2nd. On GivingTuesday, GlobalGiving will be giving away free cash for every new donation we receive, which is a fantastic opportunity to make your gift go further.
Please help us enter 2026 fully funded and ensure these children get the incredible celebration they deserve!
With heartfelt thanks,
Clara
