Let’s be honest, there is really no way to glorify an annual fund.

Annual funds cover behind-the-scenes operational expenses like gas for the car–quite literally, but I’m also talking metaphorically. Let’s run with the metaphor for a bit…. Imagine you want to road trip to the beach. You dream of the smell of the ocean, the sand between your toes, the sun on your back, and the blissful relaxation. In order to get there, you fill up your tank and pile some friends in the car. The end result far outweighs the costs to get there; however, without those initial funds the trip would not have been possible.

 

The same is true for TFFT. If the beach–or a world where orphans and vulnerable children contribute to society as active and empowered citizens free of exclusion, disadvantage, and vulnerability–is the Vision, then the fuel to get there is a small, but critical price to pay!

TFFT is an extremely lean organization, and we are always working to keep operation costs to an absolute minimum. As far as gas goes, we are definitely driving a hybrid vehicle! (Oh wait–Meghann and I actually do rock the Prius!) The Annual Fund, however, is critical to cover the unavoidable operational expenses that enable us to effectively manage our daily work so that we may ultimately arrive where we want to be–a place that is better for everyone, most importantly orphans and vulnerable children. This fund is essential for TFFT’s sustainability, and it is integral to the growth of our Teachers Training, Scholarship, and Full Circle programs.

 

 

So, today I ask you, “do you really believe in TFFT’s Vision?”

If your answer was, “yes,” will you please help get us to the beach for the sunset? If you have never before made a gift to TFFT, this is the perfect way to demonstrate your support. Your gift will officially make you part of TFFT’s family! If you are someone who is already deeply invested in TFFT’s work, then we hope you especially will see the importance of this expression of support. Please support the Annual Fund in a way that shows your passion for TFFT’s Vision! Each dollar will help advance us to our goal!
