$7,070 raised to impact Peru and the world on #GivingTuesday
by Ali Corona on December 6, 2018 in Hunger Offering
In one day, Texas Baptists provided 1,900 meals for marginalized students in Peru. And that’s just half of it.
Together, Texas Baptists raised $3,800 -- or 1,900 meals-- for Operación San Andrés this past Giving Tuesday. Even more, an additional $3,270 was raised for the Hunger Offering general fund. That’s a total of $7,070 to feed people in need, to support families breaking the cycle of poverty, and to show people the love of Christ. Amazing!
I cannot fully express my gratitude to everyone who participated. Your gifts impact the world -- one meal at a time.
