Update on the below information--
Caleb has now raised $1100 for water in South Sudan!!
That is water for 22 people for a lifetime!
And he is still hoping to impact the lives of more.
Hello friends and family--
I will be running the Pear Blossom 10
miler on April 13th with Team World Vision to help change lives in Africa.
As you know I spent my first 5 1/2 years
in Liberia, West Africa. I have
personally seen and experienced the poverty and need that is abundant in many
parts of Africa.
Recently my family read together "Running
for My Life" by Lopez Lomong, a former lost boy of Sudan who is now an
American citizen and Olympian. He talked
about wanting to do something for the people he left behind in Africa. He started an organization called 4 South Sudan, and teamed with World
Vision to help bring clean water, education and the Word of God to many in need
in Africa!
The needs are great, but I believe there
is something we can do!
I am running the Pear Blossom and seeking
sponsors to help me raise $500 or more for World Vision. $50 provides clean water for 1 person for a
generation. That will be enough to provide clean water for 10 people or more
for an entire generation!
Can you imagine what it would be like not
to have clean water available?
I Can!
We can make a difference together!
Will you make a tax-deductible donation to support my efforts? Together we can help change lives in
Africa.
If you would like to help please go
to www.teamworldvision.org You will need
to click the donate button. Then enter
my name "Caleb Jordan". Scroll
down and click on my name and you will then be directed how to make a tax
deductible donation.
I can also take check donations made
out to World Vision and I will forward them on for you. They will send you a donation receipt.
Thank you for your help and encouragement,
Caleb Jordan
