I hope this new year is filled with many blessings for you and your loved ones!

As we enter this new year, I have great news to report about the Village of Joy! We received $36,222 in donations during November and December. Those gifts were matched by a generous donor, bringing the total amount raised during that 60 day period to over $72K. That is enough to build eleven new houses, and we are now over 70% of the way to our goal for fully funding the village!

To everyone who has supported this project to-date, thank you! In the weeks to come, I look forward to reporting back on the impact your contributions are making. My next trip to visit the Village of Joy will be in March. I expect to meet at least 10 additional families that will have received homes since my visit last June. I also hope to check-in with some of the families I met previously.

Thanks for your support!
