Hey everyone.

Sorry for the slow update, I have been pretty busy preparing for the trip (I leave tomorrow morning).  Thank you to everyone for all the support and contributions you have given to this project.  Thanks to some amazing support from the Knights of Columbus of St. Lukes Parish, who put on an amazing dinner/dance night for the project, and some more incredibly generous personal donations from the staff of Abbotsford Volkswagen (Jason, Rob, Ian, Jerome, Bill, and Augest), as well as Mom and Dad, Sue McLeod, Diane Stevens, Amanda Haluk, Kevin Doerksen (and Personal Best Martial Arts), Peter & Kay Sagenschneider, Ron & Heather Buller, Enid Frankgate, Tomasz Sosnowski, Marilyn & Stu Cunningham, Mr and Mrs Spooner, The staff at Regency Volkswagen for their help and donations to our charity car wash (JoAnne, Nick, Pierre, Ben, Sam and Michael) as well as Angie McLeod for her help at the car wash.  With all your help, I was able to double my fundraising goal at $2,022.65!!! That's incredible! Hope to have some pictures up soon from May group who went down to get started on foundations and such for the houses.  Keep checking in and if you're curious, visit http://trevorsouthamerica.blogspot.ca/ to check out where I'm at for my pre-trip to this event.

Progress Report

Combining both webpages' contributions, as well as donations in person, my grand total as of now is $280.00! This is an amazing start, putting me over a quarter of my way to my goal! Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed so far! As blogspot doesn't automatically track donations like my gofundme page does (http://www.gofundme.com/ecuatrevor), I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has donated so far.  Thank you to: Sue McLeod, Diane Stevens, Lynn & Kelly Buller, Enid Frankgate and Kevin Doerksen!  Thank you also to everyone who has shared my webpages around so far!  I hope to make everyone proud down there and I know that your donations are really going to go a long way!  My goal is in reach - with everyone's help, I can get there!!

Tested and Works!

It's official! I just donated to the cause, myself and can say with confidence that my donate button works.  Although my other page at http://www.gofundme.com/ecuatrevor is awesome, it only accepts paypal as donation.  I made this second page so that those of you without paypal could still donate with your credit cards.  Just type your donation into the box and click on the link for payment without paypal.  Thank you to everyone who has contributed so far!!
