A Time of Thanksgiving
Fall
is one of my favorite times of the year, not just because of the cooling
weather here in Texas or the leaves changing; but I really enjoy reflecting on
the timeline over the last several months both personally and with Project
4031. I guess, as you get older and
maybe having a young child in the mix helps; the year seems to fly by. Kristina and I enjoy chasing our 18 month old
son Jack around…it has been such a joy to see him grow so much this year. This year has also been exciting for Project
4031, as 2013 marked 4031’s first full year of service and through the many
prayers, support, and love of all of you reading this blog we have had the
opportunity to touch over 30 families here in the United States and as of
November 18th we sent our first shipment of medical equipment to
Belize which will touch many terminally ill patients, their families, and
volunteer caregivers. We doubled our
attendance and financial support in our annual fundraiser dinner celebrating
hospice month, which was held on Thursday November 7th. We exceeded our goal by $4,000, with net
proceeds of $24,000 and $2,000 of monthly commitments through November
2014. Touching lives, sharing our
stories, and determined to get better every year; the 4031 Family has so much
to be thankful for and are so excited to continue our journey to strengthening
the end of life stories of people around the globe. During the holidays there is always a rise in
needs and of course fulfilling dreams, so please consider volunteering some
time to serve others or perhaps making a tax deductible year-end donation. If you know of a terminally ill patient with
a need or a dream, please give Project 4031 the opportunity to serve. Thank you for all that you do for Project
4031. Be sure to check out our News
Letter later this month of course future blog post to find out about 2014
volunteer opportunities and our Spring Golf Classic. I pray you have an awesome and blessed
Christmas Season and please reach out if there is a need! Merry Christmas!
A
Million Thanks,
Josh
