Hola Familia,
I just wanted to take a moment and share with you some upcoming dates on my fundraising journey. But before I dive into all of that I wanted to take a moment and say a big THANK YOU. I am so grateful for the amount of support I have received! You all have gotten me to my first deadline, Gear for training camp, and just recently this week vaccinations for my travels. I am beyond amazed and thankful to my support group who have contributed financially and through prayer to get me here! Thank you!
Okay, so here it goes! Below is a list of all the upcoming Deadlines:
1. December 19th, 2014
This date is very important because it is less than 30 days away and it is the deadline that will get me on a flight to Central America where I begin my 11 months with my squad. I need to have an additional $3500 in my account bringing my total to $6500 raised and received by this date.
2. April 15th, 2015
This is the first deadline I will have while on the field. I will need to have $9500 in total raised and received in my account by this day.
3. July 1st, 2015
This will be my final deadline on the field. I will need to be fully funded with $14,243 in my account by this day. If this deadline is not met I will not be able to continue on with my squad and will have to return home.
In order to help meet my first deadline Dec 19. M squad and I have partnered with Yankee Candle to do a fundraiser. From now until Dec. 15th 40% of any items purchased online will go toward my Trip.
