One of the major holidays of the year celebrated by many indigenous people, including North American Indians, was and still is the Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year, December 21st. And, the Winter Solstice is becoming more popular today as many turn to honoring nature and Native traditions. Read More Here
Dear Friends of Eve’s Fund,
We hope you will join us today in celebrating the Winter Solstice with rays of light and Hope. It is the start of the winter season in the Northern Hemisphere and with it, the anticipation of longer, brighter and warmer days to come.
Eve’s Fund is excited and optimistic about the possibility to once again be able to expand our programs which serve Native American youth, living on or near the Navajo Nation. If you can help us make this happen, we will be grateful.
Thank you for your interest in one or more of our literacy, injury prevention and/or scholarship initiatives. Your future support will help us bring smiles to the faces of the children and families served by our programs.
We hope that if you can, you will consider a gift to Eve’s Fund. We still need to raise $16,000 to reach our holiday fundraising goal to provide 8,000 Magic Tree House books to elementary school classrooms on or near the Navajo Nation over the next two years, allowing each child to have his/her own copy of each title in the classroom. You can READ MORE about our recently relaunched literacy initiative here: “Inspiring Navajo kids to love reading.”
Eve’s Fund will be stronger and better able to achieve our Mission because of YOU!
There have been some dark days for all of us over the past two and a half years but we are more optimistic than ever that brighter times lie ahead. Celebrating the Winter Solstice and the start of a new season, affords us a fresh opportunity to appreciate the positive things in our lives, to care for our minds and bodies, our loved ones and families, and to be thankful for the seasonal beauty of the world around us.
Wishing you and your loved ones peace, good health, and optimism during this holiday season and in the new year ahead.
With warm thanks and gratitude,
Barbara Crowell Roy
President & Co-Founder
