Getting There!

Hello jay, A few days ago I sent you a note about ARC's December matching challenge. I'm happy to say we've made progress towards the goal! We have $25,507 left to raise between now and the end of the year. Will you consider helping us once more before 2015 comes to a close? Your donation made by December 31 will be matched 100 percent! Holly Myers - a tireless advocate for refugees and an ARC donor since 1994 - has volunteered with a group of others to match all donations, up to $62,000 this December. When you give now, you'll be going twice as far to help people struggling to survive crises and get back control of their lives. If you've already sent in a gift, THANK YOU! If you haven't yet made your gift, will you help us take advantage of this incredible opportunity: www.ARCrelief.org/62match ? Thank you for your continuing support and happy holidays! Sincerely, -Daniel Daniel Wordsworth President, American Refugee Committee  P.S. If you've already made your gift for the year - THANK YOU! If you're still considering a donation, this is the perfect moment:  www.ARCrelief.org/62match

Inside ARC - 12.10.15 - ARC Team Designs Mobile App and Hello from Zaatari Refugee Camp

Hello jay, Every couple of weeks, I like to share what is new in ARC programs around the world. You make our work possible and are an integral part of the ARC family. We appreciate your questions and feedback, so please feel free to send them our way! Thank you for your continuing support.  -Daniel Daniel Wordsworth, President ***********************************************  + South Sudan Team Creates Mobile App to Improve Healthcare  + In remote regions of South Sudan, our team works hard to provide critical healthcare services. Every moment is crucial and information can be lifesaving.  Which is why our team designed a text messaging (SMS) app to much more quickly provide important alerts about possible outbreaks and more easily send public health reports to county officials. Previously, in order to submit their reports, health workers had to shutter health facilities and hand-deliver their paper reports. And the communities they served could be without medical care for days. This new mobile phone-based tool has been introduced in three of the counties in South Sudan where ARC is working. It has been so successful that the Ministry of Health has requested ARC to scale it up with hopes of introducing it nationwide! + Hello From Zaatari Refugee Camp + Our CEO Daniel Wordsworth just returned from a tour of the Middle East where he met with leaders in Dubai, Doha, Amman, and Abu Dhabi. While in Jordan, he met with volunteers leaders in Zaatari Refugee Camp who run the youth center set up by our partners at Questscope earlier this year. The youth center in Zaatari Refugee Camp is led and run by Syrian refugees. They offer classes in film making, photography, art, dance and exercise. They also gather for daily volleyball games and run a free library in the compound. Syrian Refugee volunteers have lunch with Questscope staff and ARC CEO Daniel Wordsworth.  + Shop Now: 25% off Maker's Collection + Launched at this year's Changemakers Ball, the Maker's Collection is an exclusive and limited collection of custom-designed, quality gifts from Minnesota artisans.
