Alexandra's World of Opportunity

Dear friends and family,

You've made it this far! Thanks!

In communities across Zambia, Malawi, Ghana and Burkina Faso there are millions of hardworking and innovative people seeking the chance to improve their lives. Yet, they are often stuck - unable to move forward because they lack the same opportunities that you and I have here in Canada.

I support EWB’s work to foster these opportunities for rural Africans. I am motivated by EWB's approach - specifically their vision for a new relationship between Canada and Africa. I want a message that promotes Africa truthfully and positively. One that instills hope, optimism, opportunity and a belief that extreme poverty can be overcome. I believe Canadians are at a moment in time where they have an amazing opportunity to create extraordinary change in the world.

EWB is dedicated to transforming the perception that Africa is impoverished and helpless, into a picture of hope and ingenuity. By exposing Canadians to this view, I believe it will help them make impactful choices such as buying Fair Trade or making ethical investments that will contribute to African prosperity.

This is why I am asking you to support EWB’s work this holiday season. I believe that EWB is a powerful vehicle for creating positive change. EWB is seeking to increase its impact – by doubling its volunteer capacity and flexibility to innovate. I know that they will use your donation effectively, and continue to make great things happen.

This holiday season please donate to my World of Opportunity campaign and support my passion and commitment to EWB. Together, we can help increase the opportunities for rural Africans to thrive.

....I'll send you a Christmas card!

lots of love, Alex
