Support the Growth of mkPLANET

Support the Growth of mkPLANET
• mkPLANET began in October 2004 as a place to connect MKs with one another. Since then we've grown not only in terms of membership (1400+), but also in our focus to serve the MK community in various ways as opportunities arise.

• mkPLANET is not for profit, and is made possible by the time and financial commitments of Joel & Dana Crawford (Suo & Dana), so support is always welcome. There are three ways you can support the work and leaders of mkPLANET:

1) Donate to the work of mkPLANET - Donations will be used to cover web hosting fees, updates, and upgrades as needed.




2)
Donate a personal gift to Joel & Dana Crawford (a.k.a. Suo & Dana), the administrators of mkPLANET. Please see below for more info on Joel and Dana.



3)
Volunteer your time to help us out with a project. Click here to find out more.

Your help is such a great resource for the development and continuation of mkPLANET, and your gifts are received with much gratitude. Thank you.



Dana

Administrator, Moderator

In October 2004 Dana founded mkPLANET with the hope of bringing together MKs of all ages from around the world for fun, friendship, and support. Spending her childhood as an MK in Germany and Austria, Dana returned to Canada at the age of nine. Here she and her family continued the nomadic lifestyle, moving to several locations in the provinces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Ontario. She and her husband, Joel, currently live in Ontario where she is completing her Master of Social Work (MSW) degree. Future hopes and plans include a career in community-based social work or social policy, cross-cultural development or humanitarian work, having a family, and continuing to serve MKs through mkPLANET.

Joel
Administrator, Moderator, Tech Guy

Joel was born into the life of an MK in 1973, while his parents were still in missions training in Missouri, and at the age of 11 months he arrived in Indonesia where he grew up. The language and culture became second nature to him and often took precedence over his native born background of the US. In 1993 he attended Bible School, and it was there that he first learned what being a TCK is all about. Over the years Joel has realized more and more that he has a passion for working overseas and being involved in the lives of other MKs and TCKs. Bio. Profile.
