OK.. so the last blog I have been trying to post for two weeks and have not been able to due to technical problems.. but thanks to the awesome IT people at AIM I finally got it posted and can post more blogs!
On a better note.. This post is pretty much to give you any information you may need as to why and how to help me out!!
I am on the January 2012 Route 2 Race!!
Our route consist of : Honduras
El Salvador
Guatamala
Kenya
Uganda
Tanzania
Ukraine
Romania
Thailand
Cambodia
Malaysia
This trip will cost me $15,500!! Plus the cost of gear, supplies, international insurance, immunizations, and travel to and from training camp and also to the launch site!!
So how can you help me??
1. PRAY- pray pray pray pray pray!! Knowing that there are people who care enough to mention me in there peronal time with God is awesome!! It would mean so much for you to keep me in your prayers throughout the remainder of my journey!!
2. EMOTIANAL SUPPORT- Feel free to send me words of encouragement on facebook, email, or even through the mail. It means a lot when I get those.. it brightens my entire day!! Also, im going to be sending out a journal for people to put there favorite verses or devotionals in and if you would like to be put on the mailing list just shoot me an email with your mailing address. I will take this journal with me on the World Race to read and remember the people who love and care for me back home!! All my contact information will be at the bottom of this blog!!
3. FINANCIAL SUPPORT- Fundraising is probably the most stressful part about this trip!! Put yourself in my shoes.. I dont know anyone who is comfortable with going up and asking there friends for money! But thats just the point.. nothing about this trip is comfortable.. not the places ill be, the things ill see, or the way I will be living!! So this is the beginning.. bring it on!! I need your help!! I financially need your help!! There are many ways that you can support me!!
1. Monthly Pledge – You can committ to making a monthly donation!! You decide how
much you would like to donate each month and also when you would like to start
and stop the donations. You can do this by selecting the SUPPORT ME button on
my web page and following the directions for monthly support!
2. One Time Donation – You can also give a donation anytime you like without making any
committments to a future donation. This can done by also clicking the SUPPORT
ME button on my webpage, mailing a check to AIM headquarterers with my name
in the memo line.
3. You can also give money directly to me for extra expenses of the trip!! The other cost
equal up to about $3,000!! Training camp, Launch, International Insurance,
Immunizations, and gear!!
4. Buy my gear!! – I understand that some like to see where there money goes. So.. there
is lots of items that I will need for this trip. A tent, sleeping bag, hiking bag, day
bag, sleeping pad, etc… If your interested in doing something like this simply call
or email me!!
5. Buy my product – I have many fundraisers going on at the moment!!
The Golf Ball Drop – spend just $10 for a chance to win $500!! When you
you buy a chance you get to pick a number from
1-200. On Sept. 28, 2011 these numbers will be put
on galf balls and dropped from a plane onto a target.
Whosever number lands closest to the bullseye WINS!
Walk of Faith Candles – I have candles for sell!! There are several awesome
scents and each one has an awesome bible verse on
it!! Only $12 each !!
Tutus, Hairbows, TShirts – I make tutus in any size or color.. just let me
exactly what you want!! They range in price depending
on the decor and the size!! I also make the cutest
headbands for babies!! They are $10 a piece!!
One more thing.. I also have t-shirts for sale in different
styles and designs. Refer to my facebook page for pics
Threads of Hope – I have Threads of Hope bracelets for sell!! $3 dollars a
piece! Part of the profit goes back to the Phillipines to
support the people who made them and the rest goes
toward the World Race!! Its a win win situation!!
So these are the many ways you can help me out!! Keep in mind that no donation is to big or small, and I will be so thankful for anything that God puts on your heart to give towards my race!! God Bless Everyone!! Here is all of my contact information:
