Help requested
Hello to everyone.
I received word from Guatemala that both of my girls can attend school,but do not because their parents cannot afford the uniforms they need to go .
In the sng I was told it would cost $250.00 for both of these girls to receive the
uniforms they need. I have set up a fundraising page at
www.firstgiving.com/yoselintwins
I have sent emails to all my family and friends,and on Saturday plan to
do a yard sale.
With the money needing to be there by December I am a little concerned about being able to do this. So If any of you can possibly help,it would be greatly appreciated.
thank you

cindy03, 2 years ago | FlagWell I am going to do another yard sale this weekend, of course they did not put it in the paper,but hey if I make 25.00 this week ,added to last week I will 20% of the way there.I read an article from CI today that it cost around 180 to 200 a year to send a child in guatemala to school, so I can understand
why the girls are not there. dad only makes 1o4 dollars a month and they 6 children. anyway hopefully no rain and lots of people will show.

cindy03, 2 years ago | FlagWell I think CI will help but the girls have to be in school first, and since maybe i just recently started sponsoring
them, I need to get them in school, and then maybe CI will help keep them in school using the monthly donations, I am not really sure since I am new. maybe someone from CI can clarify this confusion

why CI does not do anything about it. They promise us to do this with our general monthly contributi ons?!! -
cindy03, 2 years ago | Flagwell I had my yard sale today made 23 dollars, not much,but not bad considerin
g I live in the sicks and my ad did not make the local paper, only a sign at end of road, hopefully may ad will run in paper this week,the I will make a little more to donate toward the girls sng. all i know is that the letter I received from CI said they hsd to have these uniforms before they could begin school in january, maybe it is because I only began sponsoring
them 2 moths ago, and no one has before. when I reach this challenge with (greatly appreciate
d) help or alone. that In january I will begin to work on a new roof for their home, and food for their table. God will provide
