Our latest and greatest launches

- - - - Oh, I also wanted to mention a few more fundraisers we've launched that are sure to be a big hit.
1. We have a mall! Yes, I said it, a mall. Just about ANYthing can be bought through this website and we get a small profit from each sale. From Wal-Mart to Target, you can find your usual on-line purchases. Even ITunes! Check it out.

2. Coffee. This one is really great. Purchase coffee, premium travel mugs, and some unique Tee shirts from 963missions and we receive 40% for our mission. I must say, the coffee is really good and it promotes fair trade so it benefits many. Click on the coffee mug to the left in order for purchases to automatically link to our account. Come on, who does't drink coffee these days?

3. Bracelets - Pass the word for Mother's Day! It's coming up. The black and silver seem to be most popular. Link is at the bottom of this page.

Can't believe it's almost May!

Hope this update finds everyone in good health and good spirits. So we find ourselves halfway through April and very anxious to get to Peru. I think. :) The "manual" has come in the mail since we've sent our initial deposit and we are in for some hard work! Our days start before sunrise and come to an end around nightfall. But we are up for the challenge! It's amazing what we take for granted here in the USA. Reading our manual really puts things into perspective.

We are still sitting steady around 50% of our financial needs being met to pay for this mission. As you can imagine, we get a bit nervous since our next large deposit is due in June. But we know with continued fund-raising projects, it will work out and our giving will start soon. Thanks again to all who have help contribute so far and also to those that help spread the word!
