Fundraising again

The results from the second fundraise was not very satisfatory... We raised only half goal, and the better decision was send two of us to Los Angeles, because the work there gave us wonderfull results.
After all that emotion, sometimes not really good, We went back to school and we had one action week and two studies weeks. In our action week we visit the Yreka Hospice and helped with the Halloween community party in Fort Jones. In our two study weeks we studied about income generation and we produced fast courses to give to african people.
This weeks were a little sad, because we said good bye to a lot of people from may team and Central America team.
Now we are in Santa Barbara fundraising again. The city is small and rich, but the fire last week left the people here not so friendly... Thought the suffering from Africa be one of the worst in the world, people insist to compare... I thing that people from everywhere need help, but We think that Africa need much more than USA, even Brazil or Korea. If everybody I say hello in front of the store fundraising donate only one dollar I´m sure we already could buy our tickets to go there.
Of course everybody need to help their own people, I wanna help Brazil too, but to donate a little for the more in need it´s the minimumm to us that fortunetly had all the opportunities.
