We are so excited to announce that we are off and running in 2013! Under the leadership of the Student Council and thanks to the students, parents, faculty, and administration of Edith Bowen Lab School, a charter school located on the campus of Utah State University in Logan Utah, we are doing our first fundraiser of 2013.
We have big plans to have a breakout year in 2013 and help more people than we did last year and that means we need money to do that. We have one family we are working with that has been separated for over 20 years. The mother lives in Boston and her three children attend school in the US. She has two older daughters that have lived in the West African country of Liberia ever since a civil war broke out that unexpectedly separated them long ago. Their case is complex and will require lots of funds and time but we are dedicated to not stop until they are reunited. We need your help.
Edith Bowen has arranged a great fundraiser from February 25th - 28th at Pizza Pie Cafe in Logan. PPC will donate 25% of sales during this period to Bridges To America. I have been to PPC many times including two soccer parties and I LOVE this place! It is great fun, delicious food, and good people.
Additionally, my daughters, Marissa and Kylie, will be joining me this week at Edith Bowen to make presentations about our trip to Ghana this past December and to help the kids there better understand what we do and how they can also make a difference in the world.
We look forward to this great start to 2013 and appreciate your support!
