It is the greatest of all mistakes to do nothing because you can only do little - do what you can. ~Sydney Smith
We challenge your family to help other families by raising funds as a family.
Rather than just give money, we want you to find creative ways of raising the the money you donate. Choose the amount you want to give as a family - $25, $50 or $100, then find a way as a family to make that amount. Remember, this is a 10 month commitment, where you donate the amount you have chosen each month. Our goal is to adopt 8 communities, helping them build their community, including a school. Check the Unstoppable Foundation for more informtion. Remember $25 is less than $1.00 per day, and $50/month is just over $1.50 per day. Really challenge yorselves and go for the $100/month donation level.
Think of the fun you will have working together as a family, teaching your children about the value of giving, about setting goals and achieving them.
Here are some suggestions to start:
- charity garage sale where you get items from you neighbours
- neighbourhood bottle drive,
- bake sale
- get donations for cleaning up a river bank, or a green space.
Be creative, then make a YouTube video highlighting what you did, send us a link and we will post it on our site. |
