| As difficult as it is to accept the closing down of our crafts program, I am glad to report that
the transition is going well, with strong sales in venues throughout the metro Denver area and across the country! Thanks to so many of you who have made this possible!
Meanwhile, our community development work in El Salvador continues as solid as it has ever been in our 26-year history! Our signature projects include:
-
- Microlending with rural women's committees;
- Faith-based community organizing on issues of health care, public safety and youth development;
- Combating malnutrition among children and senior citizens;
- Providing scholarships to low-income high school and college students; and
- Building a youth center in metro San Salvador.
Yes! We continue strong in our mission to support the people of El Salvador in implementing their own vision of justice! This is only possible through through the generous support of our donors. To sustain our support for all of this work, we are inviting you to participate in Colorado Gives Day this coming Tuesday, December 4, 2012. Colorado Gives Day is sponsored through the Community First Foundation. For 24 hours on December 4th, donors will be encouraged to contribute to Colorado-based nonprofit organizations, including Project Salvador. And it is fine for you to donate even if you do not live in Colorado!
Since there are no fees associated with Colorado Gives Day, 100% of your donation will go to Project Salvador, meaning more support for our community development work in El Salvador. Every donation of any amount counts. We are also eligible to win a bonus of $1000 every hour that we have donors through the Colorado Gives Day hourly raffle.
Can we count on you to donate to Project Salvador
on Colorado Gives Day 2012?
With gratitude for your support!
