Jonathan's Fundraising Raffle


On the first day of Christmas my sponsor gave to me...

One IGP!

Let me tell you a little more about dear Jonathan. He will soon turn 10 in January. He loves school and taking long walks with his grandmother.

Jonathan's aunt seems to be the one providing Jonathan and his grandmother with the things they need. She lives in a different house close by and give them approximately $60 a month to pay for food and other things.

Jonathan's grandmother had to stop working because of a health condition. The health condition is not serious, but it restricts her from doing the only thing she knows, which is sewing.

When CI approached Ms. Lidia (Jonathan's grandmother) she at first wasn't really sure what she could do for work. The CI staff worked with her a little and came up with the idea of a business selling bed items. She will sell the items to family, friends, and neighbors. Then, she will reinvest some of the income back into the business to buy other items that she believes she will be able to sell at mark up.

It is not too late to help Jonathan and Ms. Lidia~ only $123 more needed to start Ms. Lidia up with a business for the new year! Thank you everyone for your continued support!
