Today we received a donation of $25 toward our goal! Awesome, and thank you, this is significant and will make a life-changing difference in the life of a child!
It's not so much about the amount you give, it's about the heart behind it, and the fact that you decided to do something about a serious problem—a problem that results in hundreds of thousands of children like her to not only suffer from the hazards of child labor, but also the tragedy of child trafficking and prostitution. It's a grim reality, and seems overwhelming, but when we work together, we can literally save their lives—one child at a time.
We're now just $85 away from reaching our 4th scholarship! Please follow this link if you'd like to donate toward my goal of 20 scholarships. Any amount you can afford to spare can really count!
You can help a child like him to really hope in his dreams! This shot was taken just a few days ago at our Children's Hope Center in Hyderabad, India. He's a newly enrolled student with new school supplies and everything he needs to succeed in school. At our center he'll receive nutritious meals, after-school care and tutoring along with computer classes! Together with your help we're getting him out of a life of trash heap scavenging and into school, where he will have the very real hope of breaking out of the cycle of extreme poverty.
Here are the three meals I was able to prepare today, using just $1 worth of food...
Breakfast. Breakfast taco with potatoes, carrots, a scrambled egg and pasta sauce. ▼
Lunch. Chilled pasta salad with brown rice, pinto beans and carrots. Added a splash of vinegar and a dash of seasonings for flavor, a refreshing lunch for about 30 cents. ▼
Dinner. A new breakthrough dish! A very broken-down version of this recipe, it's what I'm calling Savory Oatmeal Potato Risotto! Delicious. Seriously, this only cost about 30 to 35 cents to make. I cooked it in a pinto bean broth I made from scratch. ▼
Take Action!
1) Please consider giving toward scholarships for children of the slums. Our goal is to cover a scholarship for 20 kids to get an education this next year. Every little bit helps!
2) Please visit my unofficial sponsor, Amazon.com through this link. 7% of your purchases made through the link are given to Peace Gospel. If you're in the UK, use this link.
3) If you're compelled by my effort here, please share it with friends. One of the main goals is awareness. So if you can help with that, huge.
4) Leave me feedback. Please comment on this post, especially if you have any ideas about what I should try to cook with these ingredients I have available. I love hearing from you! It really helps!
