Steve and I are going to Peru in September with Food for the Hungry. Our team is raising funds to help alleviate domestic violence and heal family relationships in Lima, Peru. Through your financial support, Food for the Hungry will establish safe spaces through the Oikos Project in at-risk communities.
We decided that this would be our trip this year to spend time with friends, see a new country, hike and above all do some good. As you might recall I did this same thing last year with Food for the Hungry by hiking in Estes Park with 12 other amazing woman AND we were able to raise almost $70,000. This summer we have the privilege of being part of the Trek for Hope Peru 2011 team.
We hope you will join us on our goal of raising $5,000 that will go towards creating a "safe space" such as a Community Center, Library, Children's Play Area or Sports Court. The second challenge will do on our own (hopefully) which will be a 4 Day Trek to Machu Picchu in the tradition of Trek for Hope.
We ask that you will join us by financially supporting us in this effort. All of the money that you give will go directly towards creating these "safe places" for children. We will be paying all of our own expenses, your money is for the children and the Oikos Project. Thank you for considering donating to this worthy cause....

Karen and Steve
