There are 400 Million people in the United States. If every person donated just $1 dollar per month, we would have $400 Million Dollars! Imaging what amazing things that could be done with $400 Million. If each person gave just a little, it adds up to a miracle.

Updated Site Design
We have just updated the website layout to make it more navigable and easy to understand.
A donation grid showing different amounts has been added to make donating incredibly easy.
We have shortened the number of blog entry posts so the page doesn't stretch down as far,
and basically it is much more concise.
