42 days until take-off!
I got an e-mail from my project leader the other day introducing herself and letting me know that I will be going to Camiri in Bolivia. I also got a list of all the other Canadian participants in my group. We are a pretty small group (only 7 from each country) but it is pretty cool to e-mail back and forth with the people I will be getting to know over the next 7 months.
So I have been on the fundraising trail for a while now and I'm getting there! I'm 1/4 of the way there and have several awesome events planned. I'll give you the running talley:
-$530 in donations (thank you everyone who has donated)
-various silent auction/raffle items (two weekend passes to the Roots and Blues festival, a thermos from BDO Dunwoody etc.)
-The art gallery booked for the 22nd of June!!!!! COFFEEHOUSE
-a garage sale planned for the ??28th???
I'm pretty excited about all of these things and I'm hoping they will all go off beautifully. If anyone wants to help in any capacity give me a call. I'm always looking for help. I especially don't like asking people for money so if anyone likes doing that please let me know. I will give you an ice-cream cone or a hug or something...
Also I am putting together pictures and music to take with me. If you have any photo's or songs that are particularly 'canadian' or 'british columbian' or you just think I should take with, guve me a shout!
love to you all,
Anna
