Fundraising Raffle Results

BIG THANKS to all that helped this fundraising effort. The raffle raised a nice $2,716 directly for the OVC Project. So collectively, about $3,000 with the sausage sizzle and generous cash & cans donations. I'd especially like to thank my parents, my brother and his wife, the Fuss Family, Alan, Travis & Nat, Monica, Dalton, Hayley & Scott for your exceptional contribution.

In order of winners here they are: Ticket no. 665 L. Talbot, 2272 C. Mac, 2139 W. Fuss, 966 A. Nelson, 1054 R. Baker, 2073 M. Noon, 2651 R. Mottram, 2726 C. Overy, 1864 J. Hines, 1005 F. Hennig.

So this is the end of my fundraising effort as I now start to prepare for my trip there in May! Of course this is an on-going project that will continue to rely on donations so if you are able to support this project visit the official site www.mwandiovc.com. There is also a great child sponsorship program where you can support the child's education. This starts at only $85 a year, about $200 a year for the brand new High School that has just started, then about $400 for their college education. This is a great way to provide consistent support to an individual who through receiving an education, can one day make a difference to their life and the people of Mwandi.

Thanks again and Congratulations to the Winners, I hope you enjoy your prizes!
