On April 8, 2014, Sharon Daly, the president of Mossy Foot Project and daughter of founder Dr. Nathan Barlow, will celebrate her 70th birthday.
The present that would bring her most joy on her birthday would be to see construction completed on the new headquarters for the Mossy Foot Project in Soddo, Ethiopia.
The Project must vacate its current location by the end of August. The Ethiopian government has given Mossy Foot Project the land to build on and some improvements have already been made. These were described here.
Plans have been drawn up to complete construction in several phases. You can see details here.
Since Sharon’s father, Dr. Nathan Barlow, died in 2004 at the age of 91, Sharon has devoted her time and energy to sustaining the work he began to eradicate mossy foot disease.
One of Sharon’s friends has started a GoFundMe project to raise $7000 for Sharon’s 70th birthday. If you would like to show your appreciation to Sharon on this special day, click here to contribute to the fund and leave Sharon a personal birthday greeting.
