Update #7

Hello dear friends,

I have deeply appreciated your ongoing support to Gustavo! I am off to the bank next week to send him the final donations (I sent him two transfers a year since we began). We sent him $7, 200 in total, and it's been incredibly helpful to him and his kin,. I am now going to end this campaign. If you wish to support Gustavo into the future you can reach out to him.

Sending love and solidarity to you all,

carla

TODAY IS THE LAST DAY!!!

**Gustavo is feeling the love**

if you want to donate, here's your chance!

A big thank you to all who shared, supported and cheered!

With Love and Solidarity

PS: fundly doesn't add up the monthly donations to the total here, so it's a lot more than shows, but we still need a bit more to reach goal - thank you!

Dear Friends and fellow travelers,

We have just over a month left of this campaign, and with monthly donors (which isn't added up on this site) we are nearly half way to goal!

THANK YOU ALL!

Please share this campaign with your networks, and please donate if you can -- thank you.

In gratitude and friendship

Update #3

Hello Friends of Gustavo and Solidarity!

We are hoping you can help by sharing this campaign and giving if you can-- thank you!

Many thanks to all who have donated so far -- as of today we have secured $2,555.00!
However, this total does not account for the monthly donations. If the monthly supporters give for 2 years, we have almost $10,000!

That makes us half way to our goal Thanks to all of you!!

Here is a photo of the Purple Thistle youth and mentors visiting Gustavo at his home in Oaxaca. We are delighted to be able to give something back after years of his gracious support.

With love and gratitude from all of us!

Update #2

Hello Friends of Gustavo and Friends of Solidarity!

We are hoping you can help us out by sharing our campaign far and wide, and by donating if you can -- every little bit helps!

Also, FUNDLY does not show or add up the recurring donor amounts, so we will do that for you!

**Right now more than half of the donations are recurring **

- If the recurring donations are for 2 years + the one time gifts. we have raised $3, 950!
- if they are for 5 years (which some of us are doing) + the one time gifts we have raised $9, 500 !

THANK YOU!
