AVODAH THE JEWISH SERVICE CORPS INC

CMs 2010-2011 Raise Awareness and Funds

Rachel Laing's Summer Fundraising Initiative

Hello and thank you for visiting my fundraising page for AVODAH The Jewish Service Corps Inc!  

My name is Rachel Laing and at the end of August I will be moving to New Orleans to spend a year working as a Teaching Assistant at Success Prep Academy, a K-4 Charter School.  I am extremely excited to begin my year of service work, but before I do I need your help to raise funds to support this experience.  

So where will your donation go exactly?  It goes to AVODAH to help support not only myself but all 65 corps members and the anti-poverty organizations we work for in New Orleans, New York, Chicago and Washington DC.  It also helps finance education and training programs about social change and Judaism to continue to spread AVODAH's mission of fighting poverty and spurring social change.

Please consider donating through this website as it is the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts, and it is simple, fast and totally secure.

Or if you prefer, send a check with my name in the memo line to:

AVODAH: The Jewish Service Corps

7733 Maple Street

New Orleans, LA 70118

No donation is too small - anything you can give is greatly appreciated!

Many thanks for your support and don't forget to forward this to anyone else you think might want to donate!
