UPDATE MON 12/14 - Most, if not all, calenars went out today. At least I received an e-mail this afternoon saying that it looked really good that all would be going out today.
Sitting beside me right now two of the first calendars off the presses... And they look awesome!!!!
That doesn't mean they are all done and shipped. It takes a decent amount of time for them to be dried, bound, pakcaged and shipped. We are on schedule for all calendars to arrive before X-Mas, shipping by the 16th...
There will be about 20 extra calendars available via donations to Do Good. The item is active on the site but realize any donations going in now will not get a calendar before the holidays.
BUT, it is gift giving season and if you donate for any of the other premiums (shirts, mugs, etc), they'll go out in a day. I'm not seeing much come in, why not give the gift that also feeds a child in Guatemala! http://www.do-good-stuff.com
Posted by Kevin at December 11, 2009 01:27 PMyipeeeeeeeeeee! Can't wait! Thank you Kevin and team for all your blood, sweat and tears on this project! Merry Christmas everyone! For those still waiting for your children, praying it will be your last one apart! You are loved and NOT forgotten!
Posted by: Michele at December 11, 2009 03:36 PMJust a comment to help stir up some business on the Do Good Site...I ordered the tie-dye t-shirts for my children's daycare teachers. They were a big hit last year for 2 of them, so the main teachers and helpers are all receiving them this year. I include a note about how they helped feed a child for a month. Last year the teachers told me that it was the "coolest" gift they ever received!
Just a thought!

Posted by: jamie at December 16, 2009 05:45 PMFirst off let me say that the calendar is BEAUTIFUL!!
However, I only ordered 3 and I
received 6. Did I get charged for
6? Can I send back to extra 3 or
is anyone interested in buying them
from me?
I was so excited to get ours in the mail today. It is stunning, and so good to see all gorgeous children.
To those still waiting, you are all in our thoughts this holiday season. We wish for a speedy homecoming for all of your children in 2010!

families our prayers are with you.
Hi! I checked my order status today on the calendar, and it says "pending". What does that mean? I had trouble with that last year too...
Posted by: Susan Miller at December 18, 2009 11:35 AMThe Do Good site does not have the orders updated. If you can find your order with a status of "pending", then it means it should have shipped!
I am currently waiting for the tracking numbers.

Are they shipped US mail or some other service? Just curious - I haven't received mine yet and can't wait to see it. I feel like a kid waiting for Xmas morning.
Thanks
