"Give to Learn"-NEW Fundraising Program!

Hello Friends!

Never before have I had so many people who are interested in fundraising for HEAL. We have a goal of raising $125,000 by the end of next February and I know that we will reach that goal because of the important contributions by all our volunteers.

Kate Ziehm, the owner of Alpacas of Easton, LLC and co-author of the blog "Under the Amani Tree" decided to use her work to help raise money for HEAL. Through her alpaca farm, she has started a program called "Give to Learn". This program gives individuals an opportunity to subscribe to one of her alpacas. For only $50 a year, you will receive a monthly update on the alpaca of your choice. There will be pictures, videos and lessons on various aspects of alpaca farming. It is an excellent opportunity to learn more about alpaca fiber and the qualities that are important to it, what an alpaca eats, how they get shorn, how they reproduce, and much more. Agriculture is a very important part of our communities in the US and in communities around the world. This program is a great opportunity to learn more about a type of agriculture that is found in our communities, while giving to support the development of our agriculture at the HEAL the Children Home in Kenya. This is one of the best parts to this program---50% of your annual membership fee will be donated to HEAL the Children Foundation, Inc.

I am very excited about this program because it is such a creative fundraising method that offers a great educational opportunity for anyone that chooses to subscribe. I hope that you will consider joining this great program.
