Mountain Chippers

UPDATE - ALL THE BABES NOW HAVE AT LEAST $20.00.... THANK YOU!!  THESE BABES NEED FAMILIES... PLEASE KEEP CHIPPING AWAY!!

Sometimes you just have to lend a hand to a fellow mountain chipper.


                                   MAXIM                          MIKALE                             MOLLY
                                     $30.00                          $30.00                                  $30.00
    


Sometimes you just have to come alongside and take a chisel and help them chip away at their small part of the mountain.  Because sometimes the mountain chipper needs a bit of help.

                               BRITTANY                      CHRISTINE                                ROSS
                                    $30.00                           $30.00                                     $30.00
    

And this particular mountain chipper is one I admire greatly.

                                   DONALD                             PARKER                           CELESTE
                                     $30.00                                   $21.00                              $30.00        
    


She has taken it upon herself to raise the grant accounts and bring awareness to all those Lost babes who are 6 years old and older on Reece's Rainbow. THAT IS A LOT OF KIDS.

                               MARK                                        YELENA                                  TAYLOR
                               $24.00                                           $21.00                                  $24.00
    

She started out by first of all erasing all the zero's in their grant accounts.  Getting every single solitary child to have at least $5.00 in their grant account.

                                       CHRISTIAN                    DAVID                          DREW
                                       $21.00                              $24.00                        $22.00
     

We helped her a few months back to accomplish this goal. We worked on getting all the boys up to $5.00. Many many of you did much more than that and because of it some of those boy's accounts jumped substantially!


                   ANDREW P.                                    ANA                                              ERIC
                      $24.00                                               $25.80                                     $24.00
   

Once my dear fellow mountain chipper reached her goal of getting all the babes at least $5.00 in their grant accounts - SHE DID NOT LAY CHISEL ASIDE AND CONSIDER HER JOB WELL-DONE!!


                         ANDREY                                    YURI                                  LANCE
                          $38.00                                     $24.00                                       $24.00
    

Nope - SHE SET ANOTHER GOAL!


                                      FRANK                        FRANCIS                          RUSS
                                       $24.00                             $30.00                           $30.00
   


She immediately set the goal to get at least $20.00 in every grant account of all the babes who are six or older. She has taken loads of her own money to do this! Her desire is to get every one to at least $20.00 BY EASTER. And the vast majority have reached their goal.

                             SARAH                         ERIN                                              ALISHA
                             $30.00                           $25.00                                           $30.00
    

These babes are the ones who are left.  They have less than $20.00 in their grant accounts.

I wasn't going to ask anyone for money for a very very long time after our Mulligan Stew. I planned on advocating for kids but NOT doing any fundraising for a while.


                              MITKO                                   ALEXEI                                   CHARLES
                              $20.00                                     $20.00                                      $20.00
   


But my dear mountain chipper has set a goal that I want her to reach and I refuse to stand by and watch her chip alone.

                                   KYLE                                ANGELICA                              DAVEY
                                 $20.00                                   $20.00                                     $20.00
   

She is SO CLOSE!



                                 WALTER                                  DMITRI                                 RHONDA
                                  $30.00                                     $24.00                                      $24.00
   

So I am asking for all of you guys to consider helping get a few kids to that $20.00 goal. Help raise the grants accounts of all of the kids on this page.  Help chip away at a big mountain. 


                             PRUDENCE                              VICTORIA                                   LINDA
                                 $24.00                                         $20.00                                      $20.00
  





AND MAYBE - JUST MAYBE - SOMEONE HERE - WHO IS SCROLLING THROUGH THIS POST - LOOKING AT ALL THESE PRECIOUS TREASURES - WILL SEE THE ONE - THEIR FATHERLESS BABE - THEIR MOTHERLESS CHILD - AND THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL MOVE IN THEIR HEARTS - AND THEY WILL LISTEN - MAYBE... MAYBE!!

  1. Is there any way to add "Brandon" from RR who is also over 6 yrs? Love this kid! Just asking.

  2. What an amazing goal!

    I'm fond of anyone that has a heart for the older children.

    The kid I'm a guardian angel for (Alexander G - http://reecesrainbow.org/1371/alexander-g) is not on the list because he's already at $100 in his grant account.

    I'm brainstorming ways to get him up higher because his brain tumor is growing and he needs a family soon!

    I think I need to follow the lead of people like you, Patti and your friend mentioned above and stop brainstorming the perfect fundraiser and just start chipping away.

  3. Brandon has about $300 in his grant - all of the kids above have less than $20. The goal is to get all of these kids up to $20 - and then there'll be a new goal for them. :) www.zerothezeros.blogspot.com
