My name is Luke Saracoglu, and I am 15 years old. I am traveling on a special trip to Nosara, Costa Rica from June 19th-27th with my mom and other family members and friends of my late cousin Soren Wysockey-Johnson. As a group, we will be partnering with Mercy Homes Ministry to build two homes for housing-insecure families in Nosara in memory of Soren. Soren was a part of this mission trip last year and the work and community building meant a lot to him.   My family is paying for our flight, lodging and meal costs and we are asking for your support in raising funds for the building costs for the two homes. The cost of materials to build a house there is approximately $6,700 each and our goal as a group is to fund both of these houses.
To thank you for your donation, we will be making my cousin Lis's World Famous Chocolate Chip cookies  and my dad's Bloomsburg Famous Turkish Hummus (not to be eaten together- but you be the judge).  Please text me or my mom and let us know what you'd like- cookies, hummus or both:) Delivery of these items will be on Sunday, May 30th from 2-5pm. For friends who are not local, unfortunately we can’t mail the goodies but would be happy to provide a nice treat if you ever visit us. 
Also, we have an anonymous donor for this project who is willing to match your donations for up to $1,000. Thank you for reading this, and for any support you are willing to give.
