 News Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE fundraising@chbob.org November 28, 2016 Children Beyond Our Borders, Inc. has joined the global #GivingTuesday movement with a #LatinosGive campaign on HIPGive. Orlando, FL – Children Beyond Our Borders, Inc. is participating in the #LatinosGive competition, as part of the global #GivingTuesday movement—a global day of giving that promotes the collective power of individuals, communities, and organizations to empower philanthropy and celebrate generosity. Our project, Children Within Our Borders can be found by visiting www.hipgive.org/project/children-within-our-borders. This year, #GivingTuesday is celebrated on November 29, after Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and Cyber Monday, to launch the period of giving and inspire people to collaborate to support their communities. Our goal is to raise $5,000 to benefit the Hispanic communities in Orlando and Gainesville through our Children Within Our Borders program. The money will be put towards ensuring that students have the necessary materials to succeed in the school year, as well as, fund the workshops our volunteers put on for them.This year we are also raising money to buy the children a brand new toy to open up during our holiday events at each city. Children Within Our Borders is working hard to ensure that every child receives a proper education and a new present this year. "Volunteering with Children Within Our Borders the most rewarding experiences I have ever encountered. Yes, sometimes it's hectic. Yes, things never go as planned. Yes, sometimes the children are a lot to handle. But at the end of the day, none of that matters. All that matters is the impact that we, as a collective group, are able to make on each and every child living in that hotel." -Olivia bashton, CWOB Volunteer in Orlando, FL.
