We have had tremendous success in large part due to local support in Port Angeles and Sequim from the Peninsula Daily News, the Sequim Gazette, Dave and Ann Johnson (Dave’s birthday party last Saturday night was a Maasailand Health Project fundraiser) from Edna Petersen of Necessities and Temptations, and our Princess Valiant coffee and chocolate fundraiser.
To date we have raised $7,060 in actual cash. We have another $1,750 in pledges still due to come in. This brings our total fundraising dollars to $8,810. I am in awe of the support from our community, family and friends.
We have extended this fundraising drive to go through the end of March with the hope of reaching our goal of $10,000.
I am currently negotiating prices in Tanzania with a variety of providers as prices have gone up due to the onset of Malaria season, but we are making progress and I hope to have this completed by April 1 as well.
Thank you all for your support.
Asante Sana,
Tom
