5 Days Left!

This week "M" most likely found out she has been chosen for summer hosting!  She doesn't know who we are yet or where in the USA she will be spending her summer but she knows she was picked out of over 200 kids to join a family for 6 weeks!  We are so excited!

This Friday we are supposed to have all of our hosting fees paid.  I am in awe of how God has provided the money needed so far to host "M" this summer.  We only need to "sell"  80 more puzzle pieces at $5 each in order to cover our hosting fees.   We get weekly statements from New Horizons and each time I get a statement I almost cry over the generosity of people.  This has been a very humbling experience.  With each sign I take the time to paint I think of how the person that ordered it is helping this sweet girl this summer.  I have already been blessed through this process and she's not even here yet!  In addition to the puzzle pieces, signs and very generous donations I did school pictures for the preschool and kinder last week and put all of the funds towards our hosting fees.  Thank you so much to the generous families who ordered pictures to help support our summer adventure!  


So... 80 more pieces ($400) in 5 days!  I know this will happen!  Will you help?  You can donate to me in person, on pay pal, (Marygudgel@hotmail.com) or directly to the New Horizons Website (www.nhfc.org make a donation and add E1076 in the notes to ensure it goes to us).   If you would still like to purchase a sign let me know and I can let you know an estimated wait time on that too!  Thank you all again for your continued love and support, we couldn't do this without you!

Hosting Fees Update!

We have raised just about half of what we need to cover the cost of our hosting fees for "M" this summer!  This is so exciting!  We have two weeks left to come up with the other half!  Will you help us by completing this puzzle of California?  Each piece is $5.  I will write you name or message on the back of your piece and "M" will get to take the puzzle home with her.  Thank you all so much for your love and support.   For more information on what and why we are doing what we are doing you can click here!   




You can make a donation through paypal using marygudgel@hotmail.com  or straight to new Horizons For Children by visiting www.nhfc.org  Please select donate to a specific child and enter  E1076 in the comment field! (It seems you may have a problem specifying a specific child on an ipad so it may be easiest to use a computer.  Thank you!)
