We only ask at the end of the year and then only for 8 short weeks. During that time, we try to raise our entire annual budget, an amount that some say is less than half the cost of a starting teacher. But with this amount, we send out motivation, resources, and trends to thousands of global workers each week. Our budget is $17,120/year. So far, friends like you have already given $9,754.11. Unfortunately, only 1 week remains in 2013. We need your help. Would you consider asking your family or church to make a generous gift this weekend? If so, we’d be very grateful. Just click “Donate” in the upper right corner. If only a few dozen readers sent a $100 end-of-year gift, our entire annual budget would be done and, like always, we wouldn’t mention finances again for an entire additional year. Want to help? Click “donate” at the top of any Brigada page, or, mail a check made payable to Team Expansion (Brigada), 13711 Willow Reed Drive, Louisville, KY 40299. Team Expansion is a 501(c)3 incorporation so, for USA citizens, your gift to Christ through Team Expansion is tax-deductible. We’ll quickly send a thank-you note and receipt. We won’t add you to any mailing list unless you request it. Thanks for your prayers, your partnership, and your participation in the Brigada family!
