A few friends in Phoenix (thank you Tara for the great idea and organizing it) have decided to turn their motivation for losing weight into a fundraiser for Saved By God’s Grace.
Pounds for Change Fundraiser
The Pounds for Change Challenge is a 6 week fundraiser (7/9/12 through 8/20/12) that was initiated by a community of people who support Saved By God’s Grace. We are all healthfully in the process of losing weight and decided that we would like to put our best efforts into translating pounds lost for dollars toward helping these impoverished children. Although some of us are very near to our weight lost goals we feel that our collective efforts can make a huge difference for children in need.
I love the initiative, motivation and creativity to combine becoming healthy with helping our kids here in Kenya. It also goes along with one way I feel this ministry can make a difference….one child, or in this case, one pound at a time.
Thank you and good luck to everyone who is a part of the Pounds for Change fundraiser!
