Linda Johnson hasn't added a story.
Unfortunately, I just learned a few days ago that my funding source has withdrawn funding for the camps that had been approved last September because of some internal politics that I won’t go into at this point. Their withdrawal has nothing to do with the value or effectiveness of the camps. The Peace Corps has gone all-out to assist, but with the camps being so soon it limits their ability to swing financial support for the project. So, if these camps are to happen, it will need to come from private donations, and very quickly (like in the next few days).
I know you have all expressed your admiration for my willingness to leave my home, friends, family, and community to come here to serve in the good fight against poverty and HIV and AIDS. Many of you have expressed that you wish you could do something bold like that, but your life circumstance does not allow it. Here is an opportunity to make a HUGE difference for a relatively small amount that will save lives. Please look into your hearts and give generously to this project so we can proceed. A donation of $20, $50, $100, or even more will add up to the needed $7500 for these camps. I will personally handle the money so it won’t be swallowed up by some foreign NGO. You can contribute by clicking on the attached link to Fundrazr which allows you to contribute on-line to my American bank account and will send me an email to confirm your donation.
You have been waiting for an opportunity to make a huge difference……here it is. Thank you in advance from the bottom of my heartt for your generosity.
