Lisa's Birthday Fundraiser!

WHEN
Sep 1 2022 - Oct 31 2022
WHERE
Virtual

In June of this year, Alexandra & I joined an incredible group of friends, family & strangers to build a home together for a family (shown in the final picture above) living in poverty in Juarez, Mexico.  We went with Missions Ministries, an organization that partners with local churches in Mexico to find families that have the greatest needs.    The experience was transformative, as we witnessed firsthand the many challenges parents face daily to create a safe & stable environment to raise their children.

While we were in Juarez, we saw the family shown in the first picture above, who are raising these 3 beautiful girls in a 'pallet house';  without going into the whole story, suffice it to say I walked away from the encounter deeply shaken by how difficult their lives are.    The amount of money needed to build a proper home for them is only $14,500 - just think about how little money this is to build a HOUSE!   I am asking for my party, please no birthday gifts - just any generous donations you can make toward building a home for this family will be greatly appreciated (and don't forget to include any company matches!).   You will receive a receipt directly from Missions Ministries for your tax-deductible donation.  Your donation will have e a profound impact on a family living in very difficult conditions. 

As many of you know, I am passionate about the cause of helping refugee families.  It began during our time living in Spain where I created the Furnish a Future project.   The longer I work on this cause, the more I realize how important it is to address the root of the refugee crisis, by helping people build a stable life and hopefully never have to leave their home countries in the first place.    Providing a house to a family is a great starting point!

Fundraising Goal:
$14,500.00
