PCPP funding request for the kitchen coming soon...

I have submitted my request for funding for the kitchen at Mnyamana Primary school to the Peace Corps Partnership Program. This program will make it easy to donate money towards the project for all of you who have been wanting to/are interested in supporting me in my Peace Corps service.

If I am lucky, the project proposal will be posted online by the end of next week. I will inform you when the project has been posted. The website where donations can be made is: http://www.peacecorps.gov/index.cfm?shell=resources.donors. Once it has been posted, you will be able to enter "Culeton" into the search box and the project will appear.

If you know of any companies or organizations in the US that might be willing to help me, please let me know; I will contact them directly. If the application is posted next week, I will have about 3 weeks to raise a total of $8000 so I am in a bind and a time crunch so any contribution will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance and I will keep you updated!

  1. Hey~you might wanna try Proctor and Gamble and/or Convergys. Both are based here in Cincinnati, and both are big on doing good deeds.

  2. Don't be discouraged. You'll find a way to make this a reality. Interesting idea that Amanda has. Big companies may be an option. You might google companies who donate to children's projects. Does Convergys ring a bell to you?
