12 Days Of Fundraising

So December is here. This is the month we hope to travel to Ukraine. So we are going to need every ones help this month to make that happen.We still have a lot of money to raise before we go. We need to have our current owed fees paid in full before we travel. $9300 and when we arrive we will need to pay $12,500.

So to help you find ways to help us we have taken an idea I found on the here and  for the next 12 days we will be giving you all some ideas on ways you can help us. It will be like your little gift that for Olena!
This holiday season is all about giving, right? So pleases help us with our Christmas gift and play along with us.


Today, since I started late (yesterday was Lucy's baptism, so we were busy all day) I am going to ask for 2 things.
On the 1st day of Christmas Olena needs from you : One Facebook post!!!
Please share our blog, which ever blog post you feel will best help us out, on your facebook page. One share from every one will definitely get our word out to a lot of people. Its not hard to do. Hit "share" and ask your friends to read it and help us out this Christmas. It takes only a few seconds to do, but could be a giant help to us!

On the 2nd day of Christmas Olena needs from you: Two meals.
As an orphan, as long as she is in school Olena is given two meals a day. That really isn't a lot of food. While she stayed with us we had a hard time getting her to eat, because I think she was used to being hungry most of the time.
What if you were to figure out how much money it would cost you to eat two meals in a day. Probably not a lot. Well, we are asking that you help us by donating the money for those two meals to help us bring our daughter home. Think about how much money it costs you to eat two meals and donate that to us! Surely you can sacrifice two meals worth of money to save a child, Right?!?!
