Mission accomplished!!
With the help of many generous donors, GJEF Junior Board has exceeded the goal of $2000 in their 2010 fundraiser involving Heifer International and Backpacks for Homeless students at Hamilton School in Novato, CA.
The total amount raised: $2,065!
These two projects will help the Jr. Board address their two mission goals: to help others locally and globally.
- LOCALLY: providing School Backpack Kits for 100 homeless children at Hamilton Elementary School. In January 2010 the Marin Charitable Association gave a $500 grant for this project. Together these funds purchased sturdy backpacks and school supplies.
- GLOBALLY: donating to Heifer International, an organization that combats hunger by giving farm animals to the people around the world who need them most. A cow, goat or sheep can change lives. This is a great organization that not enough people know about. It needs our support.
