As we deck our own halls, wrap gifts, bake cookies, and anticipate the gathering of family for the holidays - we also remember the Keyara’s Gift family.
The long shadow of poverty casts a different light on Christmas in West Africa. Forget stocking stuffers and turkey dinners - a protein-rich soup, with rice, is a special treat for Liberians who normally live on one meal, of rice and vegetables, a day.
You’ve already given generously towards education - can you also contribute towards a Christmas meal?
$2000 would enable our Liberian team to distribute Christmas cheer to over 25 families:
$20 = a 55 lbs bag of rice
$20 = a jug of oil
$35 = additional spices, vegetables like greens or beans, and protein of fish or meat.
While not a traditional Norman Rockwell Christmas meal, this would provide a boost in sustenance and spread Christmas joy to our students and families - and will in fact cover more than one meal.
If everyone on our mailing list gave as little as $12, we could make a difference! Anything we raise beyond $2000 will go towards medical expenses and emergency funds.
With gratitude,
Karen & Kreig
Founders, Keyara's Gift
