Dear EAC supporter, 

 

What a great evening! Thank you for coming out and supporting the community of Takaungu Saturday night. We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. 

Together we raised $28,050. This money will go a long way in making a difference in the lives of those utilizing the EAC's services and programs in Kenya. 
Our goal was to raise $30,000. We are so close! If you would like to help us reach this goal, you can donate here or help by forwarding this email to your family, co-workers and friends. 

Please stay in touch with us and spread the word about the work you are now a part of. Please join us on Facebook or  subscribe to our bi-monthly newsletter

With our deepest gratitude,
The East African Center

All it Takes is One                                
An Evening for Africa
Guests joined together Saturday, May 7th at the Downtown Seattle Hilton to support the programs and services of the East African Center for the Empowerment of Women and Children (EAC).

The Seattle Jaycees sponsored the evening and were on hand to bring the sound!

There were winners (and losers) at the ring toss game.

Students, teachers, and parents welcomed everyone to the auction. You can view it on our You Tube channel.

 

April Brown, with Auction Charity World, brought her rock-star team and the energy!

Items brought literally on the backs of our interns from Kenya, trips to Bali and Italy, original watercolors painted by local artist Bill Kent, and gifts for mother's day went up for auction.

We debuted a new video marking the EAC's 10 year anniversary. Check it out!

People dashed for their deserts. 

Executive Director, Emma Nierman, spoke about the ability each of us have to cause life chaning ripples in the lives of others.

By the end of the night, we had come together to make a huge impact.

Thank you all for joining us, Asante Sana!
