[HeartStrongList] May HeartStrong Update

[heartstrong at heartstrong.org]

Dear HeartStrong Friends,
        We are almost finished with our 19th Outreach/Educational trip. 
It has
been quite a trip.  We’ve just wrapped up a week of programs and outreach
in North Carolina and have returned to Florida for our final three weeks
of outreach and educational work.
        We are so grateful to those of you who have provided financial
support to
HeartStrong during this trip.  We now only have about $2000.00 needed to
finish this trip without any left over expenses.  So thank you for your
help!
        In addition to the remaining work and the last $2000.00 needed for
expenses, we are hard at work scheduling our programs for our 20th
Outreach/Educational trip which will begin mid-August.
        Our 20th Outreach/Educational Forum Trip begins mid-September
2007.  The
HeartStrong Outreach Team will spend a minimum of 60 days providing
outreach as well as holding educational forums.
        This trip will include outreach/education in CA, AZ, NV, NY, RI,
MA, NH, CT, MA, PA, OH, MO, IL IA, IN, NJ, DC, DE and NJ.
        If you belong to a social, political or religious organization and
would like to sponsor an educational forum for HeartStrong please
contact me at marcadams at heartstrong.org
        We’ve also dedicated most of the May newsletter to discuss the two
things
HeartStrong needs the most.
        The first thing is money.  If you are not a regular supporter of
Heartstrong, please use the form below or go to our website to make a
financial contribution.
        The second thing is volunteers.  We’ve printed our complete list of
volunteer opportunities in the May newsletter.  You don’t have to be a
former student from a religious school to help HeartStrong.  In fact, for
all of these volunteer opportunities, the only thing required for all of
them is that you have your own computer and internet connection.  You may
also view the list of volunteer opportunities online at
http://www.heartstrong.org
        HeartStrong needs your help.  With your financial help and
volunteering
with HeartStrong, more students can be reached with our life-saving
message.
        As always, if you have questions and your contribution or about
volunteering, please contact me at marcadams at heartstrong.org
        I look forward to hearing from many of you.  Thanks again for your
consistent support of this work.
