CPT INTERNATIONAL: Generosity is an invitation to the future; CPT fall fundraising campaign successful
CPTnet 18 December 2010 CPT INTERNATIONAL: Generosity is an invitation to the future; CPT fall fundraising campaign successful
CPT is pleased to report that our fundraising drive in September and October was very successful! We raised a total of $93,411. Thanks to your incredible support, and cost cutting by teams, we were able to make up for the drop in donations earlier in 2010 and meet our budget for the fiscal year ending October 31st.
Relieved, Co-Director Carol Rose reflects, “Having finished the last budget year well, we now count on the flow generosity to continue this month in order to start the new year of peacemaking on the right foot.” End of year donations typically make up 40% of each year’s contributions. She continues, “This outpouring of generosity turns me toward the future with hope for deeper and wider participation by thousands of CPT supporters.”
Your part in this movement of peacemaking is critical, both through direct donations (link) and participation like responding to action requests, holding peacemaking partners in fervent prayer and spreading the word about situations that CPT’s partners face with such courage.
Can you help us expand this listserve to include others who might be interested in peacemaking around the world? CPTnet is available in both English and in Spanish. (links to sign up for CPTnet/RedECAP )
Do you have friends who might be interested in going on a delegation to briefly join the work and to learn from peacemakers in person?
Is there someone you know who might be interested in joining the CPT Corp? There are openings on every team. New CPTers almost always have had someone confirm their call. Someone who has found some way to say, ‘I think you would be good at this kind of peacemaking. Perhaps God is calling you…”
Who do you know who might use a story from CPTnet in the media or from the pulpet? Please consider frequently sharing CPTnet releases and inviting them to share the word, to join and to take action.
We would love to hear about how you have used this listserve to further peacemaking where you are and to multiply the efforts of peacemaker partners around the globe.
