You Still Have Time- We're Almost There

Our BOND Girl, Rachel Dolcine, is headed to Jamaica this summer on a missions trip. Thanks to generous donors, including some of you, she collected, packed & shipped hundreds of supplies for the needy families in Jamaica!

She still needs our help & we've got her back! BOND Girl style!

In addition to providing families with personal care items, she & volunteers traveling with her will also be:
1.) Painting walls, refurbishing desks and decorating three preschool classrooms (see inset pictures); and
2.) Building shelves for classroom libraries & building two "Little Library" for the Petersfield community.



She needs to raise $1,000 to buy the paint, wood & other supplies needed to make this happen.

Let's continue to show her some BOND love! Please consider donating or asking folks in your network to donate a tax deductible gift of $25, $50, $75 or $100. Donations can be made via our online PayPal "Donate" button below or by mailing to: Bringing On New Direction...Please write "Jamaica Missions" on the memo line of your check or money order.

Thank you for your time.

 

Spreading Love Abroad- Missions Trip to Jamaica

 Every year we rally together for a cause to champion during our Annual Community Service Project. One year we collected women’s unused undergarments in support of those victimized by rape. Another year we volunteered at a local homeless shelter. In recent years, many came for our highly sought after Poetry and Presents Poetry Event to raise money for a local women’s shelter during the Christmas holiday.

 

This year will be no different. For 2014 we are spreading BOND’s 
love beyond our borders in support of a mission’s trip to Petersfield, Jamaica. We are asking for your support in collecting personal care items (list found below). Our BOND Member Rachel, whose heading up the mission trip, shared with me the very things that are so easily at our disposal and often take for granted are considered luxury items for many in Jamaica. Items such as soap, shampoo, dental floss or even hand sanitizers are such coveted items and are costly to purchase in Jamaica. So as you can imagine, they desperately need our help.

 

I know we can rally together to collect these items. I’m requesting that you ask friends, co-workers, neighbors, local church and/or associates, to aide in our efforts. Below are the items we are seeking to collect. Our goal is collect 500 for each item. What’s your personal goal? Any amount is alright with us. Do we have your support?

 

Deodorant     Shampoo         Toothpaste        Toothbrushes               Soap              Lotion           Hand Sanitizer       Dental floss

 

Even if you aren't up to collecting items but want to give financial support towards us purchasing personal care items we have an online giving option available for you. Whatever amount you provide is greatly appreciated.
