Once again, our church (Living Hope Church in Kennesaw) is having its Pine Straw Fundraiser to benefit a cause near and dear to our hearts, the MamaTara Miskito Orphanage in Puerto Lempira, Honduras. It is a small independent Christian orphanage run by an American missionary and her team, aided by both a voluntary Honduran and American Board of Directors. This is one of the ministry's most successful fund raisers and all proceeds go directly to running the orphanage, there are no administrative fees, etc. You can find more information at www.MamaTara.org. Starting Saturday, March 8th through April 30th, we will be delivering rolls of pine straw that our customers in the greater Kennesaw/Acworth/Powder Springs/Marietta area order for drop off or drop off and spreading on their property. We are looking for volunteers to help us with these activities for our non-profit. If you love being outdoors, working in the yard, and sharing a rewarding experience with other like minded people, we would value your assistance to help us get the work done to raise money for the children under our care in Honduras!
Please call Todd Croft at (470) 382-0481 or email: Todd.e.croft@gmail.com to inquire further or sign up to support our cause. Thank you for considering supporting our fundraiser this year! If any of you would like more information on this amazing orphanage and how we have become involved, please feel free to give Todd a call.
