With Christmas coming up QUICKLY we have some exciting opportunities for everyone to get involved in!!!!

We have decided to host parties for the kids that we reach out to.
We do two outreaches a week on a regular basis. One is in a neighborhood called Kalingalinga. (isn’t that fun to say!?) Weekly two of our volunteers Grace and Febby go and they minister the love of God to the kids who live there. These are kids who are living in poverty, sometimes abuse and mostly no school. They have felt God’s call to minister to these kids and they do it faithfully.
Grace and Febby have done the research and have decided that in order to accomplish a party for 50 kids we need 8 to 10 dollars a head. What will that purchase? WELL!! FOR ONLY 8 DOLLARS we can give them a nice box of gifts. That will include
1. TWO DOLLS
2. I CAR
3. 2 TOOTHBRUSH
4. 2 PENCILS
5. 1 ERASER
6. 2 BALLS
7. 1 BAR OF SOAP
8. 1 FACE CLOTH
9. 1 TOOTHPASTE
10. 1 VASELINE
For ten dollars a head we can also provide a nice meal.
THATS ONLY TWO DOLLARS MORE!
The other outreach we hold is a weekly one to the street kids. These kids are living homeless, abused, drug addicted and purposeless. Their lives are marked by violence and destitution the likes of which most of us have never experienced. We want to bus the kids out to a soccer field and give them a fun day. We want to remove them from their environments and expose them to something different. Show them a taste of what is out there for them. In order to accomplish this we will also need 8$ to 10$ a head. That will cover the cost of renting a bus, renting a field for them to play in and food.
NOW! how many of you go to starbucks on a regular basis? I love me some starbucks………Would you be willing to give up your starbucks for one day!? JUST ONE DAY to help make a difference in the life of a kid who needs to know they are loved and that their lives matter?
If the answer is YES then the solution is a simple one! All you have to do is GIVE! You can give to our PayPal account using streetwisezambia@gmail.com. I guarantee EVERY PENNY you donate will go towards making this Christmas something these kids won't forget! After all, what is ten bucks in light of eternity and in making a kid feel special, loved and adored. Thats worth AT LEAST ten bucks in my book!
