Myrdeline Seraphin, age 13, is in the 6th level in Phaeton
The number of children in the His Hands for Haiti program without sponsors is now under 100!! This is great news! However, I wonder how the 95 children who don't have sponsors feel. Especially considering that HH4H works with 8 communities, which means that there are about 12 children in each community who are sponsorless. It may be one one or two children in a full classroom that do not have sponsors. I wonder what the children tell themselves as the reason that their classmates have a sponsor & they do not.
In an attempt to get a sponsor for EVERY child, I am making an offer that is good until February 10th, 2010. In order to get the Haitian children to write promptly & regularly, I will send each newly sponsored child a notepad, envelopes, and cool pens, plus a questionnaire for them to fill out and return to their new sponsors!! (Note: you have to contact me & let me know who you sponsored, so that I can get these items out to them)
The questionnaire will go like this:
Le m'appelle (my name is):
Quel age as-tu? J'ai ____ ans (How old are you? I am ___ years old)
Mon anniversaire est le: (My birthday is:)
Ma couleur préférée est le: (My favorite color is:)
Mon matiere prefere est: (My favorite subject is:)
Ma nourriture préféré (My favorite food:)
*anyone else have French questions to add?
AND, I found some books in French!! The books are for ages 9 and up. They are only $5 each, and there are 6 titles to choose from! Since the shipping is totally different through the HH4H program, I thought it would be easier to list them as $5 on the web store, and add the shipping as a shipping charge. I am going to send my boys some of these, so you can order some to go with my shipment. I will ship a HH4H shipment of books, notepads, & pens on 2/19/10. If you want to order, or if you sponsor a new child, make sure to do so by 2/10/10, in order to make it in this shipment.
