Still goin' strong!

Hey, Readers!

Here's a short update on the last few month's activity. In the beginning of April, Knead For Change made a donation to the nonprofit organization known as Save the Children, Inc. We opted to support this organization because it works to increase education opportunities and availability to food and health services, specifically for children, in about 180 countries. They represent themselves stating that 89% of all proceeds is distributed to their cause, and the remaining 11% is used to cover costs of operation within the organization.

After we researched some of the activities Save the Children is involved in, we decided to do a fundraiser for the organization and have pledged to raise $500. We have raised $200 so far and intend to host a garage sale and request help from local restaurants in the city of Salem, OR to raise the remainder.

In the beginning of May, we researched UNICEF, and contributed to its cause. It has been quite an uplifting experience to review varieties of non-profit organizations and learn all that they do to make a difference! We are so grateful for each of their focus!

Thanks for reading and giving us reason to write about these happenings!
Until next time,
Peace.
