Dear donor and friend, You Know Who. September. What an “accelerating” month!!! Exhausting, exciting and such a wonderful journey!!! Let me introduce my faithful fellow-travelers, the power group that makes our journey possible.
Tina created our Fundraising Calendar, the Bonus Day Poster, and as a native speaker, she lives in the USA, fine-tuned and polished our emails with track changes.
Carolina doesn’t live in Colombia either. She is our financial expert in Switzerland, made some emergency calls to GG in Washington, an ad, the emails, and is always pendent to cheer everyone up.
Mariana as the artist of the Vivatma family, designed our beautiful and unique project photo, we are so proud of.
Geraldine knows what a widget is and as our marketing expert she made the ad, the Thank you cards, and the graphics.
My name is Gudrun, I brought us all together. Responsible for coordination, storytelling and photo shots, trying hard to stay cool that cold and rainy day, when we participated in a school festival, offering books for children, stickers, handicrafts, stuff for pets, but didn’t even sell a photocopy. That experience made us more determined to enjoy the journey itself and focus on all those little joys and adventures rather than going on treasure hunt.
Then your donations came in, which wowed us a lot and suddenly my dream of a House for Cats and Kids was our dream, a dream on its way to become reality. We did not reach the goal though, but somehow the universe conspired and GG took an exceptional decision and welcomed us as permanent partners. Sooooo, guys, the journey goes on, now with more travelers on board than at the beginning. Thank you for joining us!!!
