to track the success of your fundraising ideas
It is amazing! We have a little more than 10 months until our trip and our amazing friends and family have already helped us raise more than 10% of our goal! Our family has been overwhelmed to see how God has orchestrated people and events in our life to support our goal in glorifying His name! Thank you for being part of our team!
About a month ago, an amazing family came to us wanting to be involved with our mission and offered to help with the idea of fundraising through t-shirts specific to our family and our goals. Within days they found an awesome graphic designer willing to donate his services & knew of a t-shirt wholesaler willing to make a deal on selling us the shirts. Not only did this family step in to make this all happen, they covered the cost of the shirts as their donation to us!! How amazing!! Because of them, 100% of all sales of our family's shirts will go straight to support our mission to Uganda! God is so good!!
Not only was this a team effort in getting the shirts printed, our whole family was involved in the design and planning of these shirts, down to every last detail. Ash came up with the idea of the words inside the continent of Africa, Kat stayed up all night one night looking for the perfect verse (Mark 16:15), Wy chose the heather blue color of the shirts, Alicia worked on the details & Wes added his favorite quote to the back: "If you have come to help me you are wasting your time, but you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us struggle together". We love them and are excited to see people wearing them at church and around our community!
If you are interested in supporting us through the purchase of one of our shirts, you can click on the paypal link on the right or email me at akwilbanks@charter.net! Please make sure you specify quantity & size. They are $20 each and come in Adult S, L, XL & XXL as well as youth XS, S & M (Youth large is the same as adult small. Adult M are sold out).
And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.
(Mark 16:15 ESV)
