This [birthday / wedding / run / year] I’m doing something different 🤍
Instead of gifts, I’m raising money for Art of Kindness Home: a safe home for 12 grandmothers and grandfathers in Siem Reap province, Cambodia. Many of them live alone, with no family and no one to cook for them.
My goal: €[amount] by [date].
€100 = a bed with a mattress for a grandmother
€350 = food for one grandmother for six months
€800 = a village dinner for all our grandmothers and grandfathers
€10,000 = a home with a toilet for a grandmother
Every euro, big or small, brings them closer to home. Link in my bio / stories 👉 gofund.me/780cc0fc1

Hi! 🤍 My [birthday] is coming up on [date], and this year I don’t want presents. Instead, I’m raising money for Art of Kindness Home: a home for 12 grandmothers and grandfathers in Cambodia who have no one to care for them.
If you’d like to give me something, a donation of any size would mean the world: gofund.me/780cc0fc1
(€100 = a bed with a mattress for a grandmother, €350 = food for one grandmother for six months.)
Thank you! And please share it with anyone who might care.

Thank you! 🤍 Together we raised €[amount] for Art of Kindness Home. That’s [for example: 5 beds with mattresses / food for one grandmother for six months / a home with a toilet for a grandmother], and one step closer to a safe home for 12 grandmothers and grandfathers in Cambodia.
