Leave a reply

Some people of the world are generous beyond belief – that’s what I know.

 

It’s  12 :  21  PM on day 1832 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray,  read Luke 22, publish my Disability of the Day feature, publish my Kid of the Week feature, learn one new thing –Fractious [frac·tious] adj. (1) Easily irritated; bad-tempered: “they fight and squabble like fractious kids.” (2) (of an organization) Difficult to control; unruly.– and promote my Educate Generations campaign – yesterday   Bruce Sallan donated $65 and Priyachechi donated $20 (thanks so much Bruce and chechi I really appreciate the support from both of you 🙂 ) which brings my total raised to $5 025 with 13 days still to go.

 

Yesterday “my” (it’s not just my campaign anymore it’s our campaign) Educate Generations campaign benefiting the Malala Fund surpassed the $5 000 mark I can hardly believe it the world’s generosity has left me speechless (which is a very difficult thing to do just ask my family LOL) and deeply touched thank you so much to everyone who has adopted this campaign and made it their own your support means more to me than you’ll ever know. The campaign only ends on October 3 2015 so if you still want to donate you can visit https://www.classy.org/EducateGenerations and do so.
