The Easter Egg Numbers are IN!

We finally have a tally on this year's Easter Egg Fundraiser.  


Made with Love Bakery sold just under 700 eggs!  


SYI will be receiving $2536!!!

As soon as all of the checks clear (and I finish slogging through SYI taxes), we will begin sending the money to PASK.  We will be sending the money in parts.  We will send $1000 before the end of the month.  They will be instructed that the money is for food and school fees (due in June).  Once they have spent the money and sent an accounting of the expenditures, we will send another $1000 to be invested in sustainable food for the orphanage (breeding pairs of animals, fruit trees, etc.).  The remainder will be saved and pulled with future donations and sent later in the year.  Check back in a few weeks to see pictures of their purchases and to hear news about what PASK plans to buy!

(As always, all expenditures/projects are discussed with PASK and while SYI designates a category for donations to be spent on (i.e. food, school, building, etc).  Specific purchases are left to the discretion of  PASK's headmistress, but must be reported and documented before any further disbursements from SYI are made.)

THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS FUNDRAISER SUCCESSFUL!!!
