CPT INTERNATIONAL: Celebrate peacemaking by giving

 
  God is good! (Las Pavas farmer)

Today,
Tuesday 27 November 2012, charities, families, businesses and individuals are
coming together to transform the way people think about, talk about, and participate
in the giving season. It’s a simple idea, and encourages generosity in the
wake of Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Tell everyone you can about what you are
doing and why it matters, for Christian Peacemaker Teams and other causes, on Crowdrise,
this #givingtuesday.

Join
us for this new tradition to spark a wave of giving. Check out Giving Tuesday and use this opportunity to make
a donation to CPT by becoming part of CPT’s Crowdrise effort (https://www.crowdrise.com/cptcolombia-christmas/fundraiser/christianpeacemakers/) today!
Click the donate button to donate or scroll down and join the fundraising team. (Pierre Shantz and Caldwell Manners from the Colombia team have kicked things
off.)

For further information or if you have any difficulties related to international transactions, please contact Sarah Thompson at outreach@cpt.org.
