Pampered Chef Fundraiser!

by AllFundraisers

Great News! We are partnering with one of our music community members to raise money for our Zimbabwean Youth Well Being children utilizing the Pampered Chef products. People like to give gifts and Pampered Chef makes it easy to:
• order high quality and unique kitchen items,
• receive your order (or send a gift) in a timely way, and
• send up to 25% of the order cost to Ancient Ways!
We decided to collaborate with Robin Reimer as our consultant. She is donating time and proceeds to Ancient Ways. We thought you should know about this great way to ‘contribute’ to our efforts in Zimbabwe!межвенцовые утеплители, как сделать оптимальный выбор

From November 22nd to December 12th you can order: 1) online www.pamperedchef.biz/robinreimer – choose Ancient Ways as your fundraiser, or 2) or talk to Robin by phone at (541) 908-4779. Your order will arrive in 7-11 days. It’s all so easy!

The funds raised will be put towards the services provided by the Youth Well Being Program. The focus includes: their music, library, after school activities, Life Skills Learning Retreats, Underwear for Over There, and/or Monthly Care for Over There.

Thanks for jumping on board and considering this as one of your gift-giving ideas for the 2012 holiday season! Please call or email Robin at robinandchris1@msn.com with any questions!
Here are a few FAQs:
• Each order has a $5.25 shipping/handling fee if the order is local mid-Willamette Valley. The website calculates shipping.
• If you spend $75.00 or more on products, you will receive a FREE stackable cooling rack with your order. It is the December Guest Special.
• Payments can be made by credit card or check to Robin Reimer.

Funding for Jangano School Children Sponsorships

by AllFundraisers

We have made great headway in raising funds for the school children in the Dewedzo region who are in the Jangano project. We only have 12% left to raise to keep these students in school for 2012! We started this year with $2,200, have raised over $3,200 in the last 2 months, and we have less than $750 left, thanks to many of your efforts.
Our challenges with keeping children in school have been more than a few but we are holding the vision. I want to encourage you to contact me right away if can offer some part of the $750. Please feel free to go on the website https://ancient-ways.org/projects/jangano/campaign-to-keep-jangano-children-in-school/ and make a donation of any amount there, or send a check to Ancient Ways at PO Box 346 Scio OR 97374. We also can take credit cards of any type over the phone at 877-TATENDA. Do consider this request now as the children’s school fees must be paid right away. The immediacy of the concern is great because as soon as Fradreck returns home to the villages, he will be confronted with deciding who doesn’t go to school based upon our success on this side. Please feel free to write me with any questions at windgatherer@ancient-ways.org. Thank you to all of you who have been helping, both financially, and in mind and body.RA Grani

Annual School Benefit

by AllFundraisersPerformances

Sundborn Children’s House, the Montessori school in Albany, Oregon, is holding their annual benefit and silent auction on April 14th from 6 to 10 p.m. More details about this event including information about the great food and beverage layout for the evening, where and how to pre-purchase tickets, and this year’s focus can be found at www.spring.sundborn.org.

We are inviting you because of our partnership with Sundborn, with whom we built the Nhimbe preschool in Mhondoro, Zimbabwe, where we have been nurturing more than 80 young minds each year since 2002. They have made significant contributions to support this school annually since we began this collaboration, and continue to send donations and special materials for the teachers and children.

We invite you to this event and hope you can make it. If you are unable but would like to support the efforts you can make a secure donation online on their website instead. Whatever you can do is greatly appreciated.

Ancient Ways will be there with our table of hand-crafted items from the villages, as well as providing entertainment to start the evening. Muti Marimba, a 6-piece ensemble, will be playing the uplifting music from Zimbabwe. We look forward to seeing you there.

Thank you for passing this information on to your friends, family and co-workers!
