First of all, thank you for your support for Kickin’ with Kenya. Thanks to your generous contributions, we were able to raise $12,440 for Dagoretti 4 Kids! I spoke with D4K’s director earlier this week and he is hopeful that the sustainable chicken farm project will be up and running by October.
In order to streamline the pledging/supporting process, there are two options to fulfill the amount you pledged:
- Send a check: Checks can be made out to the “HARAMBI FOR KIDS FOUNDATION” and sent to our Ohio address so that we can track people’s gifts. We will send your checks to the foundation in batches and they will send you a electronic/paper receipt depending on what you indicated through your initial pledge. PLEASE SEND CHECKS TO: Joel Zylstra 716 S. College Ave. #5 Oxford, OH 45056
- Pay via paypal: The Harambi for Kids Foundation has a non-profit paypal account set up to take credit card donations. The account is set up in such a way that 100% of the proceeds go directly to the foundation rather than paypal taking a cut off the top. Please link to paypal via the “Partner with Us” page on the Dagoretti 4 Kids website at http://www.dagoretti4kids.org/partner-with-us.
Note that Dagoretti 4 Kids and Harambi for Kids Foundation are small entities that do not have all of the large structures in place to support large forms of giving. We are using a grassroots approach to make a difference through small entities to develop and promote ongoing growth and sustainability.
