Ignite Ole Miss: Ole Miss For Togo Campaign Update
Dear Ole Miss Friends and Family,
We are now four weeks into our campaign and excited to report that we have raised $16,535 from 72 donors. We are 82% to our goal of $20,000 and have 9 days left to raise the remaining $3,465! Thank you to all our generous donors. We are optimistic that we can reach our goal in the final days of our campaign with your help.
We want to extend a Joyeux Noël from our team and the children of Togo who will benefit from our “Clean Water Saves Lives” campaign as we cheerfully continue our preparations for our trip to Togo in January! We are pleased to announce that all our travelers have received their yellow fever vaccinations and malaria pills. Our visas are due to arrive this week, too.
Before our trip, we want to introduce you to some of the travelers who will be participating in Engineering Without Border’s (EWB) Togo trip. Dillon Hall is a sophomore Mechanical Engineering student from Saltillo, MS. He is a member of the Center for Manufacturing Excellence program and American Society of Mechanical Engineers. He is also in his second year of service on the Leadership Council for the Engineering Student Body. Dillon says, “I am excited to go to Togo, Africa so that I may use the knowledge I have learned through my engineering classes and my passion to help others in order to create a reliable source of water for people who are in desperate need.”
This holiday season, please help continue our dedicated team’s mission to effect positive change in the lives of rural Togolese. Make your year-end gift today!
In addition to your financial support, you can help by becoming an ambassador for our campaign. Share our crowdfunding project with your friends and family via email or social media! #OleMiss4Togo
Sincerely,
Jamie Douglas
EWB-Ole Miss President
