I am writing to bring to your attention a family in desperate need of a home. The Fitzgerald's have asked for the help of Frontiers Foundation. I have attached photos of the Fitzgerald family and their current home. We have screened this family and you can be sure that there are truly in need of help.
Dan Fitzgerald is a good husband and father, but unable to work due to a serious disability. Neither he nor his Ojibwa wife Joanne, and two daughters, Jasmine (9), and DeAnna (8), qualify for any government housing assistance, so they have appealed to Frontiers Foundation / Operation Beaver - Canada's leading charitable housing provider. If you can help us to oblige, we'll be there.
Frontiers has turned to a new fundrasing website for charities called givemeaning.com. I hope you can help in this fundraising effort. People are now able to vote on givemeaning.com to donate to this worthy project. Some donations have started to flow in, but we still have a goal of $59,000 more to raise.

Frontiers Foundation is trying to recruit volunteers and raise $60,000 to build a three bedroom frame house for the Fitzgerald family. Since 1964 Frontiers Foundation has built or renovated over 3000 homes and community halls throughout Canada. As a registered Canadian charity we focus our housing and education projects in some of the most remote communities in Canada - the communities most in need of basic housing and education. We are able to build or renovate homes in the most cost-effective manner possible due to our proven methods, vast experience, and volunteer workforce. We utilize volunteer labour from the local communities in which we build, the beneficiaries of the project (where able) and a worldwide volunteer force. Frontiers Foundation also has the unique capacity to utilize the natural resources of the rural communities in which we work by using our portable saw mills to create cheap building materials.
