We've had so many people ask, "How can we help the orphans of Ethiopia?" In response to this question, we've decided to start a fund campaign for Christian World Adoption's Acacia Village. Acacia Village is a planned orphanage which will house over 200 orphans. It will provide a safe haven for orphans while they wait to be united with adoptive families.(You can follow the link on our sidebar to find out more about Acacia Village). Individually our limited donations may not seem to make a difference, but corporately we CAN make a difference in the lives of homeless and hopeless children in Ethiopia. Our challenge to each of you is to creatively save $5 each week. Then on Fridays, drop by our blog and donate your $5 by hitting our Chip In button. Our goal is to raise $1,000 per week for one year. If 200 individuals will save and then donate $5 each Friday, corporately, we can raise $52,000.00 to donate to Acacia Village. Plesae consider being a part of our campaign. If you'd like to receive an e-mail reminder, each Friday, please e-mail us at hortonacaciavillage@yahoo.com, and we'll add you to our weekly e-mail loop.
Please take a moment to watch the 30 second video in our next post. The pictures of the children in the video are pictures that Phil took, while in Ethiopia, in January of this year.
