And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because he is My disciple, I tell you the truth, he will certainly not lose his reward."  Matt. 10:42 NIV

One-A-Week Project

Thanks to everyone who participated in this current One-A-Week project.  Many children will be blessed by your willingness to give.

It's back--our "One-A-Week" project! We've done this before and had pretty good success. Now, with the economic crisis so severe in Latvia, we realize the need to help. Here's how it works:

Select an item from the list below.  Each week as you do your family's grocery/clothes shopping, purchase the item you've selected.  Just one item, the same item, each week for three months, October through December.  You buy just one item each week for 13 weeks.  At the end of December, you'll have collected 13 items to donate.  We'll gather all the collected items and donate them to an orphanage or day center when we travel to Latvia next.  By buying one item each week, you can donate much needed supplies while not feeling the pinch in your wallet all at once. 

If you'd like to participate, please select an item and email  Jennifer@SimplyForLatvia.org. The list will be updated regularly to show which items still need sponsoring. Some items are on the list more than once because there is such a need for these items. And, if you want to sign up for more than one item, that's great. We'll also send out reminder emails on occaision to help you remember.

If you live outside of the Atlanta or Orlando areas but you want to help, email Jennifer and let her know.

Thank you for your support and encouragement to these children.  Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
