On January 28th, 2013 I turn 20 years old.
For past birthdays I’ve asked for cameras, laptops, iPods, clothing, and shoes.
But this birthday is different, I don’t want any technology or fashion items, I only want one thing.
I want to fund the ENTIRE Education Center construction.
This is my birthday wish.
![]()
Here’s howย WE‘re gonna make it happen:
The physical structure of the Education Center will cost $20,000 to build. This builds the foundation, walls, roof, doors, windows, porches, toilets, and offices. $20,000 will get the building in tip-top shape and ready to install electricity/internet and computers and books and such.
[The Center will cost $20,000 to build, $20,000 to equip, and $10,000 to operate for 1 year]
$20,000 is A LOT of money. But I know that together we can do this. We can build this Center and bring so much hope and opportunity to this community.
The math behind this fundraiser is very easy.


How long will the fundraiser last?
The fundraiser will last for 20 days, from January 28th to Feburary 17th. (The PayPal donation account is open, so you may donate before the fundraiser officially starts!) This means that I have to raise $1,000 per day to reach the goal of $20,000.
Where can I donate?
You may donate through PayPal below.

How much have you raised so far?

How are you going to spread the word about this fundraiser?
I need to get 1,000 people to each donate $20.
Every single way possible. I have about 900 friends on Facebook and I will be messaging them all personally. You can post pictures and statuses on Facebook, but only a certain number of people will see that, and actually do something about it. If you message them all personally, they have to read the message. I know not all my FB friends will donate, and some will want to donate over $20. I also need all of YOU to get involved. I know there are some incredible and passionate world changers out there and this is an open invitation to GET INVOLVED!
How can I help?
Please email me at kuntzr@gmail.com to join “The Tribe”. I will then send you all the information, photos, and instructions on how to spread the word, get friends involved, or hold a fundraiser.
A very easy way to get involved is to personally message all of your Facebook friends with something like
“Hey NAME! Hope you are doing well! My friend Rebecca is building an Education Center in Ghana for 5,000+ children. Could you donate $20 for her 20th birthday? It will go a long way: www.together-we-are.com/20for20 Thank you!”
