I hosted a yoga class/fundraiser yesterday to raise $$ for this project. I am based in San Francisco, CA. My roommate is Palestinian and we both thought this would be a good way to plant seeds of change in that area. I just went to Paypal and donated $126.99 (weird # b/c of Australian Dollar conversion) to your efforts! Please use as needed and keep us posted to how the project is going if you are able. My email is maypop@riseup.net. Be well, Lindsay (and Danna, Wafaa, Sahar, LisaRuth, Olivia, and Farah) Hi there!

Is PRI a registered charity meaning that a receipt will allow a tax deduction? 2. If both Paypal & direct bank deposit methods are equally convenient for me, does the project benefit more financially if I use bank deposit, saving on PRI incurring Paypal fees?

For example the base plan, design, work log, notes, materials imported, species used, costing, and photos. I love the greening the desert video, but it lacks detail. This information would be great for those of us who can't visit or be involved. Keep up the great work! Geoff – is it possible to make detailed documentation about these projects available?
