(GETTING READY FOR JULY 12TH )
Dear Friend,
Raimundo, a student of our organization, decided that if he wanted to make progress in life, he should study and learn a profession. Otherwise he would continue delivering pizzas by foot for the rest of his life. Raimundo has become an example of perseverance.
Our Organization, provides free training for many other youths like Raimundo, who do not have means to pay for a course.
Like many other youths, Raimundo DOES NOT want a fish. He wants to learn how to catch them.
Says the proverb:
“GIVE A PERSON A FISH AND YOU WILL FEED THEM FOR A DAY; TEACH A PERSON TO FISH AND YOU WILL FEED THEM FOR A LIFETIME”
On JULY 12th (and only on that date), your donation will be matched at 50% while US$ 110,000.00 in GlobalGiving matching funds remain.
This means, for example, that if you donate US$ 80,00 our organization will receive US$ 120,00.
DON´T MISS THIS OPORTUNITY!
We will send you a reminder on July 11th.
Thank you so much for your support.
