"Fund Our Destiny"

Jambo rafiki,

On July 31st Maasai Association is having its first fundraising event “Fund Our Destiny” at Woodland Park Zoo in Seattle. Your support will allow the means for community empowerment and poverty eradication programs.

Right now in Merrueshi, mothers and their newborn babies are in need of urgent care for basic immunization and treatment. Mothers must travel 80 Kilometers to see a nurse. Seeing an actual doctor is rare for people in Merrueshi. Midwifes can use extra help for their delivery services. The newly built Maasai Village Clinic needs basic medical supplies and equipment, as well as basic educational programs for mothers and their children.

This fundraising event will allow educational opportunities for hundreds of Maasai children who would not otherwise have the chance for basic education. Your support will make a significant difference.

Come meet our campaign staff, board members, and your fellow supporters, and support Maasai education and healthcare.

If you are interested in attending email treasurer@maasai-association.org One of our volunteers will contact you with additional details.

If you are unable to attend our fundraising event click contact to show your support today.

Together we are making a difference.

Sincerely,

Kakuta Ole Maimai
