TEAM ZAMBIA - a different opportunity

Some of you have read my Blog post regarding Team Zambia during Holland Hundred bike ride and would like to contribute but aren't able (or don't desire :)) to commit to the actual ride. I will be riding a leg of the tour (probably the 36-mile option) for Team Zambia. If you are willing, would you consider supporting the cause by giving a flat donation or amount per mile I ride? I'd love to raise as much as I can for the building of clean water wells in Zambia, Africa.

My church (www.engedichurch.com) is partnered with a community in Zambia and a group of people from engedi travel there each year to continue this partnership, dig fish ponds, teach skills and trades, develop relationships with the orphaned community and build water wells. Each well provides the opportunity for 2,000 people to receive access to clean drinking water, an everyday necessity that, to us, is constantly at our fingertips. Your consideration to donate at any amount brings us one step closer to raising $3,500 for another well in Zambia!!

If you are willing, checks can be made out to 'engedi church' with 'clean water wells' in the memo. You may give them personally or send them to me at the address below in my signature (by Friday, July 18). For donations over $25, you will receive a gift card to the Zeeland restaurant At The Diner (www.atthediner.com). For donations of $500 or more, photography packages from Steven F. Fox Photography will be granted! (www.stevenffox.com).

Thank you so much for helping promote GOOD HEALTH (here and globally!)
