Hello Everyone!
So as some of you know, I have been volunteering with a small NGO here in Amman, Jordan. It is called "Reclaim Childhood" (http://reclaimchildhood.org/ or http://www.facebook.com/pages/Reclaim-Childhood/301396818254) and the organization focuses on sports camps/clinics for Iraqi/Palestinian/Syrian refugee girls. Every summer Reclaim Childhood puts on several summer Basketball and Soccer camps. In order for this to succeed, we depend on outside donations for supplies, such as equipment and uniforms. As the girls are refugees and only have what they brought with them to Jordan, the play outside in the summer heat in jeans and flats.
So how can you help? We are running a Mother's Day Card Drive!
Each Mother's Day Reclaim Childhood gives people the chance to give the gift of opportunity by making a donation to Reclaim Childhood in the name of someone who shares a belief in the power of sport. Donations can be made in honor of aunts, grandmothers, sisters, godmothers, friends - you name it.
$15: Buys three soccer balls.
$30: Buys shoes for 15 girls.
$50: Buys uniforms for one soccer team.
$100: Allows one Iraqi refugee girl to play soccer in the RC soccer league.
Reclaim Childhood will send the recipient a Mother's Day card designed by one of our young athletes-in-training. The card will tell her more about Reclaim Childhood's mission and specifically where the donation is going.
ALL DONATIONS MUST BE MADE BY MAY 7TH, TO ENSURE CARDS ARE SENT ON TIME.
It’s super easy to make a donation, just click on the link here: https://docs.google.com/
Sincerely,
Abby
