    Dear member,

    Faced with the economic crisis and other circumstances, we’ve decided to lower the tipping point of the Women of Kireka fundraiser.

    I will be closing this profile, which means your donation will not be charged.

    However, we would kindly appreciate if you re-donated to the new Women of Kireka profile (search Women of Kireka) which I will open momentarily. The tipping point will be much lower and thus the goal more attainable.

    Otherwise, the Women of Kireka are doing wonderful. While working to the goal of opening a tailoring business, the Women of Kireka will be making beautiful leather bracelets. Please let me know if you’re interested, they’ll be available in Canada and the US. More information will be posted on the profile.

    Many thanks,

    Siena Anstis

    It’s too bad this campaign was closed. The women of Kireka could have really benefited from this. A small investigation of their living environment illustrates just how badly they need assistance. Can you imagine being robbed of everyday amenities such as a stable paycheck, access to family medical insurance, and a stable job that pays appropriately? Things that we take for granted do not come to easily in other parts of the world and it’s our social responsibility to help those less fortunate than us. Please let me know if something like this pops up again. I want to help in any way possible.
