Current status of the GHAPE fundraising is $285.00*. With the matching funds that is a total of $570.00 so far, meaning that we fall short of raising enough funds to cover one desktop computer for GHAPE. Please consider contributing to this very worthwhile project if you have not already done so!
Thanks much!

*There are a few people who have indicated a desire to donate but who have not indicated an amount, so their donations are not yet counted in this total.
 Kerry and Marsha You are wonderful people to undertake a project like this one - my PM to Kerry is on it's way and I think once other folk get home from vacation and balance their bank accounts - you will be seeing more  - KivaFriends can always manage to gather small amounts together in one big pot to do great things !!! Thanx, jan

A very good question Colette, thanks. There is no firm timetable at this point. However, it is our goal to have the money arrive in Cameroon before October 8th when the current Kiva Fellow Yuan must leave. We would like to have him take pictures of the new equipment for us and report on it's arrival before he leaves the country. Since we are still investigating the best option for the money transfer to them, it is hard to back-date the time for donations to be due at this point. -Kerry- Note: This project is in no way affiliated with or supported by Kiva.org.

I am pleased to announce that the new total for fundraising is now $520.00. This means that with the matching funds, we now have $1,020.00 raised to improve GHAPE's infrastructure!
Thank you all Kiva Friends for your generosity!

With the generosity of Kiva Friends, I have no doubt that you will have no trouble reaching your goal!  I learned that quickly with the Kiva Donation Challenge reaching the donation goal of $2500 in just 13 days.
