I’m holding a $1 challenge over at www.findingkirilsfamily.blogspot.com, on the countdown to Christmas. Kiril is a little boy with significant special needs who has been waiting on Reece’s Rainbow for a long time, and has been bedridden in an institution for over 6 months now. My goal is to get as many people as possible to come and donate just ONE dollar to Kiril’s RR grant, and then pass this message on to just ONE other person of their choice.
Apart from people I know well, I’m contacting 50 people whose circumstances I’m not as familiar with - so if you’re in the middle of an adoption etc, I obviously don’t expect you to donate. But *please* pass along this message, whether you can give yourself or not.
Thank you and Merry Christmas!

If you're able to participate, please do! I don't share many of the fundraisers that other people are doing on here because honestly I just can't keep up with them all. But this email was out of the blue and Kirill is one of the little ones that I have met. There's a much more significant impact in knowing that a child you've laid eyes on and who I had the privilege of bringing to the RR website than someone that's just a photo. Kirill is already transferred to a mental institution and I hope and pray he lives through this winter. He is a sweet little guy with CP who desperately needs a family soon! Please consider taking part in this $1 challenge if you are able!

*Thank you* so much for this! It's hard to drop e-mails on people 'out of the blue', as you said, and wonder about the kind of response you're going to get. And it's amazing to hear from someone who's actually met Kiril, too!
ReplyDeleteNow that people have given their $1 you can post about Tonya's Hope lol. Are you feeling bombarded with requests yet? Well, Tonya's hope is on my blog if you want to add her button to your list of buttons :)
