WE ARE SO HONORED TO HAVE BEEN NOMINATED FOR A 2013 EPOCH AWARD!

Thank you to those of you who shared WHY CRIO’S STORY IS NOW YOURS. Read Hillary's story at http://criointernational.org/blog/?page=2

We are honored to be a part of your lives and that you chose to partner with us to make a difference in the lives of the people in Africa. It is you, our partners, that have enabled us to commit to long-term transformation and growth in the underresourced communities of Africa.

And thank you to those of you who nominated CRIO for an Epoch Award!

The Epoch Missions Gala was launched in 2011 with a desire to share inspiring stories and innovative solutions to problems of poverty and suffering in the world. They gave away $50,000 to individuals and organizations that are restoring broken places and lives through creative projects and initiatives. This year, they are doing it again! At Epoch 2013, they will again award $50,000 in financial grants to further these missional endeavors.

AS A NOMINEE, WE STAND A CHANCE TO WIN ONE OF THESE AWARDS TO HELP ADVANCE THE WORK OF CRIO INTERNATIONAL.

Winning an Epoch Award will mean that CRIO International can continue to bring awareness and support to the work of the local leaders in Africa, the true heroes in our story. They work tirelessly and give their lives to restore the broken communities where they live. We will continue to train and partner with them in their dreams for themselves, their families, and their communities.
