Dear Local Business:

My name is Nadiya Sorych and as as the president of the Oakland University Medical Brigades chapter, a subchapter of Global Brigades, I would like to introduce you our vision to help those in need. Global Brigades is a nonprofit, student-led global health and sustainable development organization chartered in universities around the United States and Europe. Our mission is to provide rural communities with sustainable solutions under a holistic service model, in order to improve health, water, sanitation, and economic infrastructures.

As times are tough and we go about worrying about our daily lives, we forget that in some parts of the world people live on less than $2.00 per day and do not have access to safe drinking water. Treatable health problems arise from completely preventable sources, such as building a simple chimney for your family’s stove. Your children should not be breathing with smoke when you are cooking dinner for them! Imagine not being able to help your family struggling from respiratory problems because there is completely no access to medical care.

This is where our organization comes in. Our group of student volunteers is motivated by basic human needs of families living in rural Honduras. We provide free medical care and basic health education with the goal of making that community self-sustainable. We are young college students that can offer our minds, physical strength and time. However, our financial circumstances make a trip like this a great challenge. Therefore, for resources necessary to complete our mission, we rely upon donors.

You can make a difference! We understand that most of our supporters cannot go to the actual communities, but we are going this December. Whether it is a monetary donation, medication or some empowering words to your colleagues, it will help save someone’s life.

I am reaching out to you because I know that there are a lot of good people out there that want to make a difference. I know for a fact that if you read it thus far, you are a good person. We are asking you to support our cause through your donation. Please go to https://fundraise.globalbrigades.org/empowered/chapter/oakland-university-medical-brigades-chapter/brigade/oakland-university-medical-december-2012-honduras and click on the “Donate” button on the right side of the page. If you follow the instructions on the web-page, you will automatically receive a tax receipt via e-mail recognizing your tax deductible donation. To donate by check or for more information, please send me an e-mail to nsorych@oakland.edu. I promise you that your donation will go a long way!

Kind regards,

Nadiya Sorych
