Monthly Financial Needs

I need to raise about $1200 a month. This will come directly from donations from people like you (every little bit helps, no gift is too small).

Special Projects/One-time Donations

Vehicle: $10,000-$15,000

Unfortunately, cars are really expensive here. South Africa doesn’t manufacture them and has very high [around 100%, I believe] import tax on vehicles, so they cost about 2x what they do in the states. We drive a lot and live 17km out of town, so I need something reliable [unfortunately, no AAA here...].
