October 2020 Newsletter

IAs of October 1 we are 28% towards our goal. In this time of uncertainty you are amazing. When FVSO began 15 years ago, we developed a mission statement with the ultimate goal of helping the nuns become self-sufficient. Income stability is the key to self-sufficiency. Over the years, we have been blessed by your generosity and have been able to develop a financial plan where this year’s donations become next years budget. This guarantees a year of income stability.

Our October Newsletter shines a light on our education program. The nuns have done a wonderful job through this stressful period of COVID. Now the kids are back in school using new social protocols.

Read about them in our newsletter.

The college kids are getting ready as well but their schedule is less certain. We hope to be able to award a few more scholarships thi year when we have confirmation the students are back on campus..

ANNUAL FUND DRIVE

Traditionally our Annual Fund Drive is from August to December when we receive 60% of our annual donations.

Fund Goal: $150,000

To Date: $42,289

To Go: $107,711

Our October Newsletter (click here) has the details of the fund drive. The Sisters have done so much with your donations to provide a safe and secure home for the kids. Thanks so much.

All operating expenses paid by the Board of Directors so 100% of your donation goes

to the children.

SUPPORT THE CHILDREN

We hope you will be moved to help the children with a donation. For only $12 a month (about the price of one take-out large pizza) you will provide daily nutrition for one child for one month. Make a difference today. It is our hope that others who are interested in helping the poorest of the poor’s orphans will choose to participate in this very worthwhile and life sustaining cause.

If you wish to contribute, we encourage you to not only make a personal contribution, but to spread the word about our work to other Vets, your church and community groups.

The FVSO Board pays for all administrative costs.

100% of your donation goes to the children, or projects that support the children.
