Hey Team,
We are less than a month away from heading out, and we have done a lot of work over the last couple of months to get ready. Part of this effort is getting all of our supplies ready to take with us. This includes raising some extra funds to purchase everything that we are hauling over seas with us.
Cue the opportunity for you to help:
This Saturday morning we will be holding a Yard Sale at Capital Church (7th south and 10th east for those of you who don't know). Who knows what tools, toys, and tangibles you'll find that you never knew you needed. All the proceeds from this yard sale will go towards purchasing supplies that we will be taking with us. And anything that doesn't get sold will be donated to the Salvation Army.
So there are two ways that you can help!
1 - Come buy stuff! There are bound to be some killer deals to be made and we would love see you there.
2 - Donate! In order to have a yard sale, we will be selling items that people in our community have donated after some good ole fashioned spring cleaning. So bring around that old clunky TV that you want to get rid of. Drop off those toys your teenagers don't play with anymore. And if they are only "lightly used", bring in that old wardrobe (so you can justify buying a new one perhaps?).
3 - (I know I said there were two, but this is a good one) Tell your friends! The more people that stop by, the more successful this will be.
Feel free to drop off any items tomorrow evening, Friday the 12th, between 2 and 8pm (Apologies for the short notice). It's for a great cause and like I said, we'd love to see you there.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us.
Thanks again to all of your for your continued support, we couldn't do it without you.

Mkhombokati
The Mhkombokati CarePoint serves approximately 200 children, many of whom are orphans and specifically rely on the CarePoint for food. Over the years, several short-term mission teams from Capital have traveled to Mkhombokati, bringing thousands of pounds of supplies and bringing back knowledge – learning from the children and adults on the ground what their needs truly are and how we can help them most effectively.
