They say the best things in life are free, so apparently food in your stomach and a roof over your head aren't the best things in life! How will you afford living expenses while you're living and teaching in Togo?
We will help you through the steps of FUNdraising for your time here. We will provide you with a multimedia packet of information for yourself, and to present to potential supporters. The packet includes step by step instructions, digital and paper copies of info to give out, and a video. We are experienced fundraisers, and though it can be a challenging experience, it can also be a very powerful exercise in depending on God's provision. Of course, we are here to answer any questions you, or perspective supporters may have along the way, so you will not be in it alone.
Please feel free to leave a comment or ask questions. If you would like to communicate but do not want the comment published, just say so and I will read and respond to the comment without publishing it on the site.

Meet the precious darlings!
We are excited about the teacher(s) God will be bringing to us! We know God will put that same anticipation in your hearts. Toward that end, we want to give you a glimpse into the wonderful personalities of the children you will be working with:
Maddie (currently age 12, entering 8th grade) is a very intelligent, very capable child with artistic flair. She wants to do everything very well—and she almost always does! She is very in-tune to the expectations of others and is eager to please and to do her very best.
Michal (currently age 10, entering 6th grade) is an extraordinarily loyal, kind child. Her mild, gentle manner puts everyone around her at ease. So what if her head is sometimes in the clouds? Her heart is always empathetic towards others.
Katie (currently age 8, entering 3rd grade) is a starry-eyed lover of all creatures. If Michal’s head is in the clouds, Katie’s is in outer space—her imagination certainly takes her to far-off places! But we all love to read her (many, many) books!
Jonah (currently age 5, entering first grade) may be a bit shy until you get to know him—and then he is the clown in the group! He enjoys making people laugh—with funny faces, funny words, and funny jokes (which may not actually contain humorous content, but are truly funny when coming from him!).
Of course, we are a bit biased, but we can honestly say that each of our children is a bright, sensitive child, keenly desiring to please God. We know they will be deeply blessed by your influence on their precious lives, and we pray you will be equally enriched.
