An update on fundraising efforts


  We will be in Chennai. It is colored in lavendar on the bottom part of the map off of the Bay of Bengal.
 India has been at the forefront of conversation in our home these past few weeks. I have watched the six part series of The Story of India. I have broke my rated R rule and watched Slumdog Millionaire, which was a fantastic movie. (Although, I came away from it thinking, yikes, I hope my time their doesn't involve any of this stuff). I ate curry the other night when we went to dinner with friends. I have recently been searching for a book about Mother Theresa on my kindle. Russ has even created a Facebook page for those that are on facebook. You can also donate from the Facebook page if you like. The Kent girls have all invited their friends to the page.




  Quincy is currently putting together a presentation for the rotary organization in hopes of presenting it to some of our businessemen in the area. As you can see we are all in on it in someway at the Kent home. This being said, we also are continuing to investigate into further fundraising opportunities. Many of you have already responded with positive feedback, given me some great ideas, and have donated to our efforts and we are very thankful for that support. If you have any ideas, please post them here or give us a call and let us hear them. We certainly cannot do it without other people's help.




  Our goal is to create awareness of Rising Star Outreach's three pronged mission and bring you along with us through this process of planning and eventually arriving to India. Pressing forward...only five months to go!
