Time Flies - May 3rd is THE Deadline!

Time flies!

The final deadline for raising funds for my trip fast approaches. Final payment for the Cambodia trip is due next Wednesday (yikes!). That's 7 days...

I feel like a final push will bring me over the hump, and I'm optimistic that this will happen without undue stress. However, to make sure I reach my goal, I'd like to invite you to my humble home for a fundraising party I'll dub:

SWEETS for the SWEET - Desert and Coffee for a Cause!
146 Verndale Ave
8:00 - 11:00 pm
401-383-7526

All are welcome. The goal of this brief gathering is to help John raise the remaining funds needed to get to Phnom Penh this summer. Guests are advised to bring the following:

- Themselves
- An appetite
- A contribution to support John's Trip

To RSVP, please contact John via email (19jfrancisc77@gmail.com) or call (401-378-8965) before May 1st.

If you're interested in supporting this effort, but are unable to attend, please consider a contribution (cash or check). For those that want their support to be tax-deductable, make a check to: the One World Foundation of New York Inc.. Given the close timing of this, it's best that you connect with John and hand any support directly to him...

Alternatively, send checks directly to:

The One World Foundation of New York
301 W. 110th Street • Suite 3P
New York, NY • 10026

Finally:

On advice, I'd like to offer a pyramid of support - perhaps these suggested amounts can help define levels of giving that make sense. I suggest that folks consider the following levels of support:

- $15
- $25
- $50
- $100
- $200
- $250
