Holiday Bridge Campaign

December 2011 Update

Thanks to everyone who donated to our 2010 Holiday Campaign!

Postcards have been sent out this past week, though you might notice a Chicago postal mark. Our final budget ended up being more than $100,000, and while the team was able to raise almost that amount, we didn’t quite make the whole thing.

This meant that any final dollars needed to go the bridge completion (and Canchias community), and so we saved some money by mailing our postcards from Chicago instead of Honduras, and while we were able to send out the artisan crafts, the commemorative calendars didn’t make it. We very much apologize for this, but please know that every dollar counted — and went to the project, above all.

Please contact a team member if you have any more questions, and again, we thank you for both your generosity and your understanding.

Holiday Bridge Campaign 2010

The Basics:
From December 1st to January 15th, pledges to the Canchias Agricultural Bridge Project can be made as an alternative gift for the Holiday Season. Your pledge can help EWB finish building the Canchias Bridge. You can also give a gift in the honor of someone else. In exchange, the EWB team will give you a gift in return.
