Due to a bit of pushing and thanks to a few stunning contributions, the 2011 Haiti Medical Mission fund has just surpassed the $2K mark....with two months to go! PaPal has been giving me fits, requesting all this documentation to ensure my fundraising is "legit," so I have provided them with ample papwerwork with regards to the Mt. Carmel Orphanage, Pastor Geordany, and the Mt. Pleasant Church of the Brethren. However, the hospital contributions have really picked up this week thanks to some very socially-minded doctors and nurses....they saw me scramble last year and do in two weeks' time what I have two months' luxury to perform this time around.
As we head into this Thanksgiving Holiday, we have much to be thankful for, not least of which is each morning we wake up safe, in warmth, in health, and surrounded by our loved ones. But we should also give thanks that we are not starving, dying of cholera, or living in a tent city with displaced/deceased family scattered to the the four corners of a third-world land.
Thank you everyone who has contributed so far!
