adeniro's Personal Fundraising Page
Project summary
Your support will help millions of hard-working people who seek to rebuild their lives and homes while also resurrecting their communities. Your donation helps open schools, start small businesses and establish peace in communities scarred by conflict. We work directly with communities to learn their most urgent needs, then collaborate with them on long-term solutions to their biggest challenges. By working together with families and local partners, we help bring about lasting change — change that helps communities emerge from turmoil and turn crisis into opportunity.
Message from adeniro:
Help me raise money for Mercy Corps — and change lives in some of the world's toughest places!
Mercy Corps is a team of 3,700 professionals helping turn crisis into opportunity for millions around the world. Their philosophy is simple: No one is more motivated or better equipped to create change than the person whose life and future is at stake. They see their role as helping catalyze the change that communities want to see.
Your donations contribute to efforts like helping stock school libraries in Zimbabwe ... training women's self-help groups in the Central African Republic ... teaching rice farmers in Sri Lanka and Indonesia growing techniques that are both more productive and better for the environment ... and supporting the land rights of indigenous farmers in Guatemala.
You can support efforts like these — and help me meet my personal fundraising target — by making a gift on this page.
Thank you!
But wait, there’s more! In order to provide a more direct engagement with the book, in whose spirit this fundraiser is taking place, if you make a donation on this page, drop me a quick note (adeniroATgmail.com) and I’ll send you something extra: a one-of-a-kind paragraph of ephemera and apocrypha set in the world of the novel, made just for you! It could be anything. And I can send it by post or email. I’m easy. (River transport of mail post is forthcoming.) Just let me know which you’d prefer and I’ll get it out to you in about a week. So hopefully we can, in some small way, assist others in making an impactful change.
