BETHANY CHRISTIAN SERVICES

Grand Rapids

Kara's Fundraising Page for Yezelalem Minch in Ethiopia

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page!

Bethany Christian Services has changed my life and our family.  Since traveling to Ethiopia to bring our Kalkidan and Degitu home, my heart is aching to help the orphans there. 

 

 For Every dollar you donate to children at Yezelalem Minch, your name will be entered to win THIRD DAY's Chirstmas Offerings CD on 7/25/10. $5=5 chances, $7=7, $10=10. Let's try and feed 12 more children this month in Ethiopia!

Plus,  you will be entered in a Barnes & Noble $25 Gift Card Giveaway on 7/22/2010 to mark our 7month anniversary as a family of 6!.   Please share on your blog or facebook and you will also be entered in the giveaway. 

Your donation will help a temporary care center called Yezelalem Minch located in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.  Yezelalem Minch is an Ethiopian organization reaching out to children whose parents have died of AIDS, while also providing support and meeting the needs of families who have taken in orphaned children. Beyond basic care, Yezelalem Minch seeks to enrich the lives of the children through educational, spiritual and social opportunities, with family-style homes that house children who cannot be cared for by the community.

Bethany supports Yezelalem Minch by contributing to school fees, providing educational and school materials, and giving food support for over 650 children. Bethany also covers medical expenses for 50 orphans who are living with HIV.  So, your generousity with help Bethany Christian Services support Yezelalem Minch's ministry that helps saves lives and families in Ethiopia.
