Jerrod- Grin Kids

Nice pick Jerrod. Thanks for playing...and by playing I mean sacrificing hard earned money that could otherwise be spent on Tequilla, to drink by the pool, instead of running 6 miles. Seriously though...thank you everyone.

New Donations

Liz, one of our newest members chose an organization called Back on my Feet, aiding homeless people by building their self-esteem through running.
http://www.backonmyfeet.org/

Alan, in the other cell, chose to give money to Levines Children's Hospital through the Children's Miracle Network. I have personally been there, and the place seems very friendly and even though kids in hospitals is not a good thing, it appears as though this place is the most kid friendly you can get. Picture a McDonald's playground where you can get medical attention.

If you think you might want to be involved, but cant afford $38 every two weeks, I am creating starter cells for only $10 every two weeks. Let me know if this sounds more doable to you.

thanks for readin'.

Kiva.org update

I just leant out the money we had sitting in our Kiva.org account and I came across these stats for us. It makes me excited to know that in this case we arent just giving money to a cuase, but these people are getting the tools they need to advance in life.

Feel free to look on our account (will.dalen@gmail.com, pw: gengroup3) to learn more about who has recieved loans from us and how they are doing.
