Early Seasons Greetings!

I invite you to take part in our annual Friends & RPCVs of Guyana calendar sales drive.
FROG is in its second year as a non-profit and we're very excited for the challenges and triumphs we will face in the upcoming year. FROG is currently looking to raise funds for development activities in Guyana through the sale of calendars, and we would like to offer one to you! In 2007, we raised close to $1,000 through our calendar sales.
From the money we raised we were able to provide financial assistance to a "Beach Cleanup" day in Georgetown, Guyana. A number of Peace Corps Volunteers and Guyanese volunteered spending the day cleaning up a local beach in the capitol city.
The RPCV International Calendar, produced by fellow returned volunteers from Madison, WI, features the richness and diversity of world cultures through photography, first-hand stories, indigenous designs, country statistics, holidays, celestial events, regional recipes, book reviews and music and film recommendations.
These calendars are on sale for $13.00. Please also include $2.50 for shipping and handling. Proceeds from calendars purchased through FROG are donated to support development projects in Guyana.
To purchase a calendar, simply reply back to me with the following information:
Name
Mailing Address
Phone Number

Form of payment: Check/PayPal
If paying by check please send payment to: 723 12th St. SE #3, Washington, DC 20003.

Thanks you!
The Folks of FROG!
