 So far, $294,000 has been raised by Lisa's run and generous, loving donors.
Dear Lisa...
We have used some of the money of your run to repair a sistern in our mission in Sassi, Ethiopia... Without your great run this summer, these 700 kids and the nuns would be without water ... so ... Jesus said "Whoever gives a cup of water in my name ..."
Wow... You have just given gallons and gallons ...
Thank you, thank you for running the three hundred miles ...
God bless you... Sr. MB
ps... Attached is a picture looking down from the playground of Sassi... and the other the kids saying thank you ... There are so many up there... It takes 4 hours to walk... or six hours to drive to Sassi... The kids have been going up and down with water... You know how heavy that is...
They go everyday for the rolls and whatever food we can get them and then bring it up for everyone.

Your donation is greatly appreciated!
Lisa has completed the Badwater Double to fundraise for the countless Aids orphans that need our help in Ethiopia. Lisa’s dear friend, Sister Mary Beth Lloyd, sees to it that any funds raised are specifically used to feed, clothe and educate these children... perhaps you didn't know that every 14 seconds a Child Headed Household is formed!! That is... 4 or 5 little children, brothers and sisters who have lost their parents from Aids and are trying to make it together as a family... usually a 10 year old girl with younger brothers and sisters... struggling not only to stay alive but to stay together.
