Call For Action Trip 2012

Pavla is preparing for her 13th trip to Cameroon on May 1st, 2012. She will be in Cameroon for about eight weeks. Thanks to your kindness and generosity, her ticket was already paid for. Her goal is to raise $10,000 for the trip. So far, we have $6,375.

We are turning to you, our kind and generous donors, on behalf of
the students in Cameroon and asking for your support so we could reach our goal. Your loving care and generous support will be greatly appreciated.

During her trip, Pavla wants to purchase basic school supplies for many students and more science lab equipment for a public high school at Ntumbaw, depending on available funds. In addition, Pavla will work with our coordinators in Cameroon to plan for specific projects in 2012/2013 academic year. She also plans to assist many students with essential school related needs, meet with parents and students to discuss their current situation, check report cards and choose eligible students for assistance in the 2012/13 academic year. Two Wellesley Book Awards will be given to the two best female science students from two different schools in rural Cameroon. Several short wave radios donated by the Ears to Our World non-profit group will be handed over to teachers from different schools in remote parts of Cameroon. In addition, if the school uniforms and school bags project submitted to the Riverside Church in New York will be funded, Pavla, in collaboration with our coordinators in Cameroon, will execute this project.

As a continuing side project, Pavla will meet with representatives of a non-profit group in Bamenda that helps stray dogs and hand over the donations from various veterinary clinics in Linn County. In addition in collaboration with the staff of the Cameroon Baptist Center and a few public high schools she will share a DVD from the Born Free Foundation, and DVDs with Planet Earth series and the Dog Whisperer to bring more awareness about our beautiful planet Earth and some of its magnificent inhabitants.

Please, do not hesitate to email or call Pavla if you have any questions. Checks can be made to Educare-Africa with “Trip 2012” in the memo. P.O. Box 3278, Albany, OR 97321.

Thank you very much on behalf of the students in Cameroon for
your kind and generous support!

With much love, joy, peace and gratitude,
Fondly,
