CHICAGO, IL (July 5, 2006) – By simply clicking a computer\u2019s mouse button once a day, Covenanters have raised more than $760 to benefit the impoverished people of Bentiu, Sudan. <\/p>\n

Individuals can donate 25 cents of someone else\u2019s money each day by going to the CHIC 2006 website and \u201cClick for CHIC.\u201d An anonymous donor has agreed to fund each click. To visit the website and trigger a donation, please see Click for CHIC.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are so thankful for all the people who have clicked for CHIC,\u201d says Kjersten Jennings, CHIC administrative assistant. \u201cNow that we\u2019re just weeks away from the big event, we would love to see that amount really go up.\u201d She noted that clicking the site once a day takes less than 10 seconds.<\/p>\n

CHIC is working with Covenant World Relief to meet needs in Bentiu, a small village in central Sudan. The CHIC-generated donations will help pay for a new school, student supplies, teacher salaries, a food program, and a clinic to address the medical needs of the community. Over the years, CHIC participants have donated several hundred thousand dollars through special offerings received at the events.<\/p>\n

Space is still available for the Feed My Starving Children excursion. Participants will pack meals for the children in Bentiu. Registration can be completed online at Excursion Registration.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cIt will be an exciting time working with kids from across the country so they can help others around the world,\u201d Jennings says. \u201cThe food they pack will be distributed in the same school built with the money that is donated.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to be working with Feed My Starving Children,\u201d says Jennings. \u201cThey do an incredible job of feeding people who suffer the most from malnutrition and hunger.\u201d<\/p>\n

Covenant World Relief is the international humanitarian aid arm of the Evangelical Covenant Church. Its mission is to offer relief, rehabilitation, and development in Christ’s name to the “poorest of the poor.”<\/p>\n
