I wanted to take advantage of this little bit of down time to update you all on our progress and preparation for our big trip, which is just a little over two months away (what!?)...
Currently we have raised a total of $3,360.00. That is simply incredible. It's been a ton of work but worth every single second. We still have $2,640.00 to go to reach our total goal of $6,000.00, however even if we hit $4,000.00, we will be thrilled. There are still a few months left for us to collect donations, (through http://www.gofundme.com/ashleyandsean) and we are confident that we will be bringing an amazing thing to the Balinese Children at our program; the gift of education, and maybe a few other things too :)
A special thanks to our latest donors; Ivana Dojcinovic from Stella & Dot for generously donating 50% of her proceeds from TWO trunk shows, my friend and coworker Melissa Shaver, a friend from overseas with a huge heart - Priti Bodani, Sean's sister Courtney Neal, and my Grandma Shirley & Grandpa Don. Also a big shout out to all of you who have come out to support our fundraisers; you are all shining stars and we love you so much.
Thank you all so much AGAIN for your continued support. And if you haven't already, you can "subsribe" to this blog in the bottom right hand corner of this page, and updates will be sent to your email address when we are posting from overseas.
Much love to all of you during this beautiful Holiday Season, and all the best in the New Year. Take care, eat lots of treats, and enjoy your families & friends!
xoxo Ashley
