Hello Everyone,
The upcoming summer camps in our Mali and Senegal branches are around the corner. We are eager and excited to get our camps fully sourced and off the ground. There has been a bubbling enthusiasm build up in our summer camp participants and their family as they hear about all the cool stuff we have lined up for this years camps. A lot of the camp material is enroute to Africa from Boston, MA. The remaining straggler pieces will be hand delivered by the iNERDE core team members that are going to be travelling for the camps this summer.
In partnership information we have successfully closed financial contribution as well as in resources/kind from EMC, Silicon Valley Community Foundation, Micky Ward foundation, Bio-Rad and our unwavering individual donors (including all of you). This has led to creation of fund sources of $30,000+ and resources/kind donations to the tune of $20,000+. Please take a bow to yourselves as it is your kind donations that got us started on this path of success very early this year.
As we continue to ramp up towards the camp beginning, we intend to provide a blog spot as well as media packages for you to follow the camps throughout the summer culminating in the graduation ceremonies at both our Mali and Senegal camp sites.
Thank you for your continued interest and support towards this cause. Stay tuned as we pick up the frequency of reports as we get closer and into our summer camps. Our intent is to provide a rich and comprehensive coverage of the camps which your donations have enabled.
Cheers,
CG
