Direct Package to Isaura in Colombia




A post from Chenelle:
The post below has all been taken from my liftone blog. I have decided to post it for those who may not follow the site.
Finally, the long awaited letter has arrived. As many of you may or may not be aware of, I sent a package to Isaura in Colombia late February. You can read my blog about it here.
She received it in June. I am very excited because I was not expecting it to arrive as early as today since Debbie told me it was mailed Friday. Kudos to the speedy workers at CI. Isaura was very happy to receive her package.
Here is what she wrote:
"Dear Chenelle, I hope this letter finds you well. I love you very much. Thank you very much for sending me all those beautiful things. I am very happy. I thank you for sending me chocolates. 3 lip glosses, 5 candy necklaces, a package of ponytail holders, a soap, a pair or socks,2 packages of pens, a personal hygiene kit,2 nail polishes, a perfume,2 notebooks, a pair of pants, 2 blouses, a skirt, a dress and a t-shirt. You are my best friend. I'd never like to be separated from you. You are like a sister to me and you are very beautiful. I say goodbye with love, Isaura"
Let me start off by saying Im am very glad she has been calling me by my first name in the last few letters. Im glad she sees me as a sister, that is also how I see her since we are not too far apart in age. I cant wait until she receives her second, smaller package.

Meet Chenelle's Child Isaura in Colombia

A post from Chenelle:
I have been following this group for a few months now and would like to introduce my oldest child to the group. I sponsor two children. I have been sponsoring Isaura for about 6 months and I already feel that I have a special bond with her. I can honestly say that she is my favorite. She is 13 years old and lives in Cartagena,Colombia. She has 2 brothers and lives with her mother. Her father has passed. Here is the most recent letter from her in response to her SNG I sent for her birthday.

Dear Sponsor,

I hope this letter finds you well. I thank you for giving me these gifts. I had a great time when I went shopping. I received a pair of sandals, a short pants, a tight, 2 tops an electric fan and some yogurts. I was glad to receive the gift which came on my birthday. I love to dance so much. I am taking part of a dance contest at school and I hope to win. Typical dance in my country are Mapale, Cumbia, Regaeton, Danzal. I hope that when you visit me someday, you teach me the typical dances of your country, and I teach you ours. I love you so much.

Love,

Your sponsored child,

Isaura

I have attached her most recent picture taken this year. I sent a DP a month ago that she should be getting soon. I will let the group know as soon as I receive feedback on that. With her SNG she bought a pair of shorts, 1 t-shirt, 1 outfit,1 pair of shoes, an electric fan and a pack of yogurt.
