No Event Too Big, No Donation Too Small

The Global Neighbor Project is a volunteer-driven effort that is doing big things across Pierce County to draw attention to the needs of children in Lesotho:
  • Yesterday, Life Center Pastor Dean Curry and Ken Grassi, a business leader and a member of the University Place City Council, staffed a booth at Business EXPO 2007, the Puget Sound's largest business showcase event. The event drew hundreds of business owners and managers from throughout Tacoma and Pierce County. Ken and Dean, along with members of World Vision's staff, were able to share GNP's goals and accomplishments with many of these leaders from the commercial sector.
  • In September, 63,000 people went through the World Vision Experience Village at the Puyallup Fair.
  • On July 27th & 28th, Chapel Hill Presbyterian Church hosted a 2400 square foot exhibit featuring a stirring interactive audio tour combined with captivating photography that transported visitors to the heart of Africa .
  • On July 1st, Life Center hosted a Red, White & Blue Celebration benefit concert with the Tacoma Symphony.
These were all very large events, well attended, and there are many more to come; nevertheless, the success of the Global Neighbor Project requires support from all parts of our community--no donation is too small, no effort is insignificant.
