Orphan Sunday is only one week away on November 12th. We are using this event to try and raise funds for a school bus for our C.A.R.E. Center. Currently our children are walking or riding Okada, motorcycle taxis, to and from our center on a busy federal road. The children that walk end up getting home later than desired and sometimes can get into trouble along the way. The children taking Okada get home on time, but we always say a prayer as we send them off. Okada accidents are very common in Egbe and we are blessed that none of our children have been in one.
Please help us fundraise for our bus by passing this email along to everyone you know.
For those of you on Facebook, we are asking that on Sunday the 12th you change your profile picture to a graphic I have created that looks like the one above. We also need you to post the following verbiage.
“HELP US raise $10,000 for a bus for C.A.R.E. Africa. Visit http://bit.ly/CAREBUS to donate or visit www.facebook.com/CAREAfrica for more information on this amazing orphan ministry in Egbe, Nigeria.”
If you are willing to help us do this please email me at patrice@milesinmissions.com and I will send you the graphic and verbiage.
Thank you so much for thinking about helping us spread the word about our School Bus Project on November 12th, Orphan Sunday!
Here is the link for donations…..http://bit.ly/CAREBUS. I didn’t realize bitly links are case sensitive so the email that was sent did not have the correct link. Sorry guys!
