The opening day hunger challenge is now over! Through this challenge, here is what was donated:

– Family Donation of $50
– School Desk / Supplies
– Goats
– Water Wells
– Water Bundle (water wells, hygene training, bathroom at a Compassion center and “where most needed” fund)
– Child Survival Program

All this because a small handful of people decided to give money that would have gone to a few meals at a restaurant. I’m blessed to know all of you who have decided to give for those who are in dire straits. The positive impact you have made on these people is far greater than any of us will probably be able to comprehend!

I hope we can take a look at what we spend our money on and at least keep in the back of our minds what good it would do for others. Here is the link again to bookmark if you ever feel the desire to give. http://www.compassion.com/catalog/catalog-gifts-by-price.htm

The winner of the contest for the custom card is: Jason.1969 from the Net54 forums. Congratulations Jason! Please don’t forget to send me a picture of yourself. You will soon be immortalized on a custom a&g style baseball card 🙂

For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’
– Matthew 25:35-41
