Fundraising Successes! $30,000 Goal Met!

What a great afternoon it was at the Tea for Hope! Micah Smith from Global Gateway Network was our keynote speaker. He talked about how our shipment to Israel to help Syrians affected by civil war was delivered box by box across the Israeli border to reach 15 surgical camps in Syria. With the money raised from the Tea for Hope and Idaho Gives Day events, we are now ready to send two shipments to Israel. One will be distributed by Global Gateway Network and the other by The Joseph Project.

As I (Todd) write this, Micah has found another group that is willing to pay for a shipment to Israel. God is at work and continues to bring new partners to work with around the world.

Our goal was to raise $30,000 between the Tea for Hope and Idaho Gives Day so we could send two shipments to Israel. Through the faithfulness of our donors we raised $30,435! A total of $27,810 was raised through Tea for Hope, including event donations, silent auction sales, ticket sales, and sponsorships. And $2,625 was raised on Idaho Gives Day.

Thanks to everyone who participated in any way. And a special thank you to Claudia Weathermon Tester who was our MC. Claudia is a true professional to work with.
