Hey Dina, Here’s a Mar…
Hey Dina,

Here’s a March vote to keep off an amazing month!

Our time on Crowdrise has been such an amazing gift to myself and our students here at the Imagine Academy in South Africa. It has introduced us to some incredible people and helped us raise much needed funds to keep our project going.

Now we need your help in a different way. More than donations (though those are pretty important ;) what drives our program is ideas, most notably creative ideas. The kids we work with don't have much chance in school to think outside the box, as their curriculum consists almost entirely of rote learning. Our goal is to bridge that gap and challenge the students to think in ways (analytically, imaginatively, abstractly) that they haven't had a chance to before.

So my challenge to you is to dip into your own deep well of creativity and send over your best idea for the Imagine Academy. Don’t be shy! It can be anything: a book, short story, poem, board game, logic game, funny story, computer software, relevant organization to share with, and on and on. Our kids are 14-17 years old and eager to ponder big ideas, use their imagination, and empower their futures. So think back to what intellectually inspired you at that very pivotal age!

Can’t wait to hear your suggestions and thanks for your support,

Corey

Hello Crowdrise friend, I just…
Hello Crowdrise friend, I just wanted to tell you that I am having a contest. If you donate any amount to my Fellowship Health Resources Project by 3/31 you will be entered to win my ipod 4th generation (the newest one) and I’ll even throw in a leather case for it. That’s a value of over $200. In case you are wondering about my Fellowship charity it provides clinical and support services to people who are suffering from mental illnesses and other disorders. They even provide them housing. Please help me raise a lot of money for this cause, thank you! :)

Hey Dina, February vote comi…
Hey Dina,

February vote coming your way! If you get a chance check out our computer fundraising project. After some AMAZING Crowdrise support last month we’re incredibly close to reaching our goal for a new computer center here in South Africa.

As always, if you’re looking for a great project to join we’d love to have you. As a bonus for all new team members....I will write you a personalized poem rhyming your name no less than 3 times :) (quality of poem not guaranteed)

Also, definitely check out our cool new website and follow along with the photo/stories of some awesome kids doing some equally awesome stuff! (www.KohScholar.org)

Thank you again from the very grateful kids in the Imagine Academy,


Corey
