Because of this, children are needlessly dying of preventable diseases. Some of these unfortunate kids may live next door to you. Some may live in a neighboring state. I just so happened to fall in love with this particular family while I was in South Africa and I’m in a position to make a lot of people aware of their story as we work to improve the situation. So that’s what I’m doing. To be sure, these kids represent a much larger contingent that deserves more attention. My aim is to reach the folks who are willing and able to provide that support, all while raising awareness about an issue that is often ignored by the media. I found myself wondering how I could do this. Since music is my craft, I did my best to do it through song. After facilitating a small circle of logistic support, and !"#$%&"$'#'(#)'*+'$,*'*-,'.+",)'*+'*-,'/&01'#1'0&2,3*%)'#1'4+11&5%,6' that’s exactly what I did. And that’s when other people came into play to help out…like you. The funds will continue to be raised and work will continue to be done.

ONE MONTH

...to do good. ...to help one person. ...to give a break. ...to breathe easy.

Many of us have been there. Unforeseen expenses come into our lives, the car breaks down, a pipe bursts, your bike gets stolen, and for some, an illness arrives. No one anticipates getting sick or hurt. But when it happens it can be overwhelming and expensive. On top of the stress of getting healthy comes the stress of paying for care. Sink or Swim Philadelphia can help ease a little bit of that stress. With your help, once a month we can lend a helping hand. One month. One person. If you need help paying for your medical expenses OR if you want to learn how you can help those in need visit us at:

Here’s a little more information about Watson Jeudi: Watson, 15 years old, currently lives with his mom in a small riverside home. He has 2 sisters & 3 brothers. Watson loves school but was forced to drop out as his family could no longer afford tuition fees. He’d love to be a Pastor in the future, but for now is hoping to go back to school. Watson has started seeing a tutor to prepare him & is incredibly enthusiastic. He’s also passionate about music & started a rap group with his good friend Valiens. With your help, we were able to set him on track to fulfill his dreams. For that, we can never thank you enough! This is just one of the children we were able to help. Together, we can touch many, many more lives. In doing so, we will find our own lives touched as well. Keep up the good fight!
