Help Send Bonnie to Ireland (secret gift)!

***see bottom of page for list of thank you gifts***

Hello all!

I am writing to reach out to you all for help with a project I’m very excited about!

.

.

.

Here’s the short of it:

My mom, Bonnie Grover, is turning 60 on June 27th, and I am raising money to send her on a travel adventure for this special landmark in her life.

.

.

.

The long of it:

We all know Bonnie, whether as a healer, gardener, guide, matriarch, caretaker, or friend, and at some point in our lives, we have each been touched by her loving kindness, nurturing guidance, or healing. She is the most selfless person I know; she spends many hours each week providing skilled and loving nursing care and companionship to her home care patients in southern Maine, and she has provided strong support for my siblings and me as we journeyed through childhood and into adulthood.

Bonnie has traveled across the country in years past, and taken many fondly-remembered road trips with my siblings and I. Now that I (her youngest) have officially left home to start life on my own, and it’s just her, my dad, and the four pets at home for now, she has a little more freedom to travel. However, she is not financially able to take the trip she deserves.

It has long been a wish of Bonnie’s to visit the Irish and Scottish countryside, and she has put off this dream for many years to ensure that those she loves have their needs met.

.

.

.

That’s where WE all come in!

Now that my mom is turning 60, I think it’s a great time to show her how much we all love and appreciate her!

Let’s fund this birthday trip for my mom! I know this will be one of many, many more beautiful journeys for her.

.

.

.

The money part:

For travel expenses, and to make up for missed time at work (she’s an independent contractor RN and doesn’t receive vacation pay), I calculated a goal of $2,000. If we all give a little, this can happen easily!

Gifts for Donations

Even if you are only able to give one dollar, the gesture is appreciated immensely, and the sentiment is not lost! Thank you for your support!

For gifts of........I will hand-make and mail you:

$10-$24........small sketch or painting

$25-$49........choose one: small handcrafted

piece, custom poem

$50-$74........choose one: short story, crafted jewelry item, or mini-book of animal facts based on my travels, including colored photos

$75-$99........original flute meditation soundtrack

$100+........pick any two items from above

$200+........pick three above, OR send me a photograph and I will transform it into an artistic rendering

Thank you!

(If we end up with less that the $2,000 needed for overseas expenses, the money will be used for a less expensive birthday trip)
