A preface to Kirsten’s
message below:
As you may know, Kirsten has been in southern India,
intermittently for many years. She
is presently working on an educational project to help poor students learn
English, so they can follow their own dreams. Watch her really cute video about the children & their
project. PLEASE donate - even $1 dollar helps
& her link to “Kickstarter” fundraising site makes it really easy! THANKS! Ann

12/18/09 - From Kirsten:
“I won't bore you with the pre-holiday
‘donate-to-a-good-cause’ stuff, but please check out the link below and be the
first to make a pledge. I'll bring
you a special gift all the way from INDIA. Yes...its true, surprise, I'll be
home for the holidays.
It's official; we have launched our “Kickstarter” fundraising site. The way
it works: We have a funding goal of $4000 (for one DVD episode). If we reach
that goal, we get to keep all the money that has been pledged. If we do not, we
get nothing. But we can fund raise above and beyond our goal (and hope to!) We
would really appreciate it if you could send out the link to people you know as
well. There are some pre-holiday special pledge rewards posted if people act
fast (only US and Canadian residents).”
