Thank you!!

Here is a quick update on Geneva's challenge! The friends of Geneva and the Harris Family want to thank you so so much for your generosity! We have met (and exceeded) our original goal of $800! Donations continue to come in and we want you to know how thankful we are for those who have given to make Geneva's dream a reality!! Whatever extra money there is after purchasing plane tickets, they will be able to use for additional travel expenses for their trip and maybe be able to do some fun tourist activity while in LA. We will be sure to keep you posted on the trip and the competition.. Thank you again for your love and support!!

LA or Bust

Hi! My name is Laura Kirkland.  I want to tell you about my one of a kind neighbor, Geneva Harris.
Geneva is a spunky and joy filled 8 year old girl.  She rides her scooter,  has an amazing singing voice, and she's pretty smart, too.  Geneva is also sight impaired.  Just recently, she won the regional braille championship and has been invited to compete in the NATIONAL BRAILLE CHALLENGE in Los Angeles, CA.  But she needs our help to get there.  Our goal is to raise $800.  This will pay the cost of air fare for 2 to LA.  Once Geneva and her mom arrive in LA, the transportation, meals, and hotel are taken care of.  Will you consider donating to help fly this precious little girl to LA?
Sean has documented her story.. please check out the documentary below...
We are hoping to raise the $800 by next Tuesday, May 22nd.  The cost of tickets is going up and they need to go ahead and purchase them asap.  To donate, use the Pay Pal button to the right and in the message section please put "Geneva's Challenge".  If you do not have a Pay Pal account and would like to donate, please email us at LAX4geneva@gmail.com and we will give you the address where you can mail a donation!  THANK YOU in advance for helping to make a little girl's dream come true!
