An account and the start of raising funds

The summer is nearing an end and I still have a lot of work to do. Fortunately I have been able to speak at 2 more churches and a couple more clubs.

Good news came about 12 days ago as Bethany Lutheran Church (of New Lisbon, WI.) decided to hold onto any of the money raised for the project. This non profit account was the first large hurdle to clear and it gives much needed support. I am now in a position to focus on raising funds solely for the school project.

While trying to speak at more places and set up more meetings I have realized I cannot do this on my own. I need help doing this. If you are able to give money please send it to:

618 W. River ST.
New Lisbon, WI.
53950


Make sure to designate checks payable to Bethany Lutheran AND on the memo line write Ghana Project, or School Project. I believe all gifts of money are tax deductable and receipts would be given at the end of the year.

If you know someone else that could help but they would want to hear about the project from me, or you are a part of an organization that may be able to fundraise please contact through email at jake_snake12@hotmail.com or godwinamwayschool@gmail.com. I am completely open to speaking anywhere or meeting with anyone.

Thank you for any support -most recently the support from the people I work with and work for who graciously donated more than 1300 dollars total in one day.
