That means that any donations made (I think just in Canada) are now being made to a registered charity and therefore entitled to a charitable donation receipt for income tax purposes... This is great news!
We are just getting ready to kick off the program by getting 20 donation boxes out into our community at various churches and schools. We have also written to some companies that make school supplies to see if they have something they might be willing to contribute.
All in all, we are off to a good start. The group of people who are there to support this work in Canada has grown to 8 and so Shelley and I will be leaving this work in good hands when we leave in 200 days or so...
This week we got a bank account set up so we can now receive monetary donations. The supplies themselves are really starting to come in as well...
More soon.... Kyle
