What happens when a teenager becomes passionate about helping kids serve other kids in desperate situations? In Kendall Ciesemier's case, a new ministry is born! Kids Caring 4 Kids has become an inspiring real life example of 1 Timothy 4:12.
Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers in what you say, in the way you live, in your love, your faith, and your purity."
At Lifesong for Orphans we are so thankful to have them as a partner with our Lifesong School in Zambia.
But do you want to know some really exciting news?
Out of 5,000+ nominees, KC4K is a finalist for not 1 but 2 Classy Awards!
The prize for each award is $15,000! That's a possibility of $30,000 that would ALL go towards serving our children in Zambia!
Wow!
So in the hope of staying Classy, we are hosting a little awards competition of our own!
Here's how it works:
KC4K is in the final round to win the Classy Awards. They are nominated for:
Small Charity of the Year
and
Most Creative Fundraiser
In order to win they need the most public votes between now and August 28. This means we need YOU... and your friends and families and coworkers and the people that you pass on the street to vote!
so...
This is what you do... every WEDNESDAY through this month of August, between 12am - 11:59pm find as many friends as you can to vote for KC4K HERE
Once you're on the CLASSY AWARDS website look under CHARITY CATEGORIES and click on:
1. SMALL CHARITY OF THE YEAR and then click the VOTE button for Kids Caring 4 Kids
and
2. MOST CREATIVE FUNDRAISER BY A CHARITY and then click the VOTE button for Kids Caring 4 Kids (and make sure to click SUMBIT MY BALLOT or your vote WON'T COUNT!)
once you and your friends have voted for BOTH awards go to our facebook page and tell us you voted!
Every week we will draw 2 NAMES from those who have voted... the names drawn will receive a prize and will also be entered in our GRAND PRIZE drawing which will take place at the end of the month.
The more friends you get to vote the more times your name will be entered in the drawing. Simply have them post on our facebook wall:
I voted for your name!"
If your friends don't have facebook they can leave a comment on THIS POST.
Each person can only vote ONE TIME and you can vote anytime but only votes entered on a Wednesday will be entered in the drawings.
This week's prize will be a new copy of Orphanology (click HERE to find out more about this book!)
Oh! And would you like to know what the GRAND PRIZE will be?
We will be providing 2 tickets to the Together for Adoption conference in Phoenix, AZ this October 21-22!
Oh, but it's doesn't end there! We will also pay for a one night stay in a hotel AND airfare for two!!
Starting at midnight tonight we will be counting all votes and will announce the winner of the Orphanology book on Thursday. The Grand Prize will be announced the week following the close of the entire competition.
So... get voting!
