TOTAL $ RAISED for Creating Hope 4 Cambodia

AMAZING!!!! job girls...that's all I gotta say about the total amount of money raised by Troop 0521.  :)

Our goal was to raise $500.  That amount would send 1 girl in Cambodia to school.  That amount would help save not only this little girl from a life of sadness and an unknown future but also provide a future for a family.  The girls in this country are not the only ones that are impacted by the amount of money raised through the ministry of Creating Hope 4 Cambodia.  By letting a girl stay in school we are helping brothers, sisters, moms and dads as well...because if a child goes to school, a future of hope is opened for these families as well.

Below I will share with you how much You were the hands and feet of Jesus the past few weeks at AHG...but first...let's recap:

• You got a little dirty...putting glue all over trees (which raised $70!)
• You painted some chalkboards on Operation Christmas Child boxes (over 900 left the doors at Christ Community Church alone!)
• You carefully measured, helped and guided a mixture of ingredients into a hole in a jar...which is not small task! (the Cookie Jar mixes raised over $170!)
• You searched in all those hidden spots where coins could be found and brought in over $325 in week 1...and yes, that was a lot of pennies to count.  ;)
• You made yummy food and crafts at home and brought them to sell...which raised over $50.
• Many of you stood at a table for an hour or more telling people about AHG and how you worked as a group to make the items sitting at the table.  
• Prayers were given over the shoeboxes, cookie jars, trees and goodies...and those words will impact more people than we will ever know.

Hands and feet...

AHG Troop 0521...you helped raise over $650 for the Creating Hope 4 Cambodia Sale!  

Thank YOU!  and Thank YOU parents, volunteers and leaders for letting your girls be part of this event, finding your change, heating up your ovens and using those hands to help your girls make items at home and bringing them to serve at Service Night and at the sale.
