Here Are Those Who Care

Challenges Entered: 
Our current campaign is to save the kindergarten of Al Aqabah (our earliest project) and its village. When newcomers join this campaign, we would like to show them a web-based map of others in their congressional district who have registered and invite them into a discussion forum. People will be interacting with our staff, with those directly involved with the cause there on the ground, with other constituents who are concerned with the village, and possibly with others nationwide or worldwide who want to help develop a particular idea or aspect of the case. They’ll use a web interface that includes event management and constituent mapping in each congressional district to gain a sense of how we all fit together. We use “Contact Congress Teleconferences” to link constituents with the people directly involved and senior staffers for their senators and representatives. Below is a film we made in 2004 about Al Aqabah, when it seemed as if an "eastern wall" was the reason for the mass demolition order.

Helping kids with a financial need in the motorsport world.

Challenges Entered: 
Our primary goal is to raise funds to assist children ages 5 to 18 involved in motor sports.  These funds provide equipment and cover other expenses to enable the children we sponsor to continue to compete in this exciting and challenging sport.  Every child deserves to be able to compete in their selected sport, regardless of their economic means. The average cost per child per year to be competitively involved in racing is $10,000.00; many can not afford to compete without assistance.  In this day and age, encouraging children to do something positive is of increasing importance.  A sport is one mechanism to provide the focus, discipline and self-esteem so many children need today.
