Fall Yucatan Projects:
Two mission trips to the Yucatan were made during October & November. For the first time, we were able to bring additional Carrie's Heart volunteers on the mission trips. A big thanks to Angi Johnson & Olivia Pelech for their awesome fundraising efforts & hard work that made these missions a success.

Presentations: We are offering presentations about Carrie's Heart and our Christmas projects to interested school, church & work groups. This is a great opportunity for us to spread the word about Carrie's Heart and expand our family of supporters. If you are interested in more information about our presentations please contact Carrie Conn.
Matched Giving: Carrie's Heart is now eligible for matched giving through Halliburton and Country Wide. This is a great way to double your giving if you or someone you know works for one of these companies. If you work for a company that offers matched giving programs please consider adding Carrie's Heart to the list of approved charities.

We wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving! We thank you for being a part of the Carrie's Heart family!
