We want to share an exciting opportunity we have to purchase
a car that will be much more reliable and seat our now, family of SIX! We want
to ask you to partner with us for the purchase. The car is a 2001 LandCruiser
that seats 8. We are looking to buy the car from some missionaries who are
leaving the field in August. We have currently raised about half the funds we
need. We have about three more weeks to give the family a definite yes as they
have graciously waited to see if we could raise the funds to purchase the car.

Our Current Car 1996 Toyota Carib |
Why a new car for
the F6? Our current car has undergone several maintenance
repairs and is honestly not fit for the roads we drive as we frequently have to
change flat tires, have suspension trouble, not to mention that we can’t buckle
our children safely in the car as it only seats 5. As we travel down the roads
we are frequently dodging oncoming cars that come in the wrong lane to pass the
car in front of them. It is terrifying when the whole family is in the car and
we don’t feel we have a car that can “withstand a hit” from oncoming cars. The
purchase of this car would provide a safe means of travel for the whole family,
it is a larger bulkier car that can stand up to bullying buses, public
transport vehicles and other large cars that like to bully us off the road. The
car is built to withstand our Kenyan rough roads and will even have 2 available
spaces for other passengers.
How can you help? The price of the car is $12,100 and we
currently have $5,665 raised for the purchase of the car. Will you please
consider sending a tax deductible donation of any size to assist in the
purchase of the car? We only have $6,435 to go!
