So a major part of the fundraising has started. My church had a dinner for me and we raised over $1,100, so thank you to the South Clinton Baptist Church.

I am still having a pancake breakfast at the Aubrey's off of papermill this saturday from 8am - 10am. It is 5$ per person.

There will be an article out in the News Sentinal tomorrow regarding the pancake breakfast and my trip to Africa.

If you aren't able to make the pancake breakfast, here are some other ways you can help!!!

1. Visit my online blog [http://soccersarahinafrica.blogspot.com/] and use the 'Make A Donation' button to make a donation using your credit card and my GRS PayPal Account (it’s secure and very easy!). You can also set PayPal for an automatic deduction from your checking account if you’d like to make smaller monthly donations.

2. You can make a check out to Grassroot Soccer, Inc., be sure to put my name in the memo line, then mail it to:Grassroot Soccer, Inc.PO Box 712Norwich, VT 05055For your records, Grassroot Soccer’s Federal Tax ID number is #43-1957920. If you have any questions please contact Angela Tucker at (802) 649-2900 or angelat@grassrootsoccer.org.

3. Pass this on to anybody else that might be interested! Even if you don't currently have resources to contribute yourself, I hope to be able to share this experience with as many people as possible, and get more people interested and involved with Grassroot Soccer’s fight against the spread of HIV/AIDS in Africa.

Thank you for all of the support.
