United We Serve

This summer, President Obama is calling on all of us to serve.

This year, I chose to work with African children orphaned by/ born with/or otherwise impacted by HIV, because they are the most vulnerable population on this planet. Providing these children with HIV medication, beds, clean water, food, and education is the least I can do. In addition, easing their burden & preventing more children from suffering this same fate serves our entire global community.

Half-way point, more than half-way there!‏

This week marks the half-way point for my year-long project for African children infected/orphaned/affected by HIV/AIDs. I am happy to report that I am more than half-way to my $20,000 goal.

With the support of friends, family, and local community, I have raised $10,015, which leaves $9,985 to go! Just last week, I held a garage sale with my neighbors' help & donations to raise $520.

Please provide your support and seize the opportunity to provide clean water, comfort, and hope to these children: http://www.sugiforkids.blogspot.com/

Garages & Neighbors!

With help from my neighbors and friends, I have been busily prepping for my charity garage sale. As part of this Saturday's Palo Alto Citywide Garage sale, my house will be listed in the local newspaper.

I rallied my neighbors & friends for donations, and bags of goods seem to keep magically appeaing on my doorstep! One neighbor even donated excess inventory from her cool cafe/shop!! The neighborhood kids have also been pitching in--donating lots of toys. They will also be selling lemonade and giving away free popcorn to keep garage-salers happy.

Now I just have to sort & price a few hundred items.

what fun!
:)
