Rosalie's Fundraiser Follow Up

These picures are from the fundraiser we did for Tamara's child Rosalie in the Philippines. She was in desperate need of house repairs. Their home had many holes that needed patching. Every time it would rain, they would have to put pails under all of the leaks in the roof. Now, they can sleep peacefully and stay safe and sound in their newly repaired home!! It is wild how so little can make a big difference. Some of you donated $10, some donated $20, etc. Look at what a big difference your donation made!!! Thank you to all that helped this family!

Summer Reading Package Received~ John in the Philippines

A post from Sarah O:

John is seven and lives in the Philippines. According to the report that
came with these photos, "John was so pleased with the gift package; he
loves the coloring book and crayons a lot. He also spent time browsing his
books and he wanted to say thank you to his sponsor." Aura's House
(http://aurashouse.com) is currently hosting a fundraiser for him and his
family so that they can start an Income Generating Project. I've helped
several of my sponsored children's families start their own small
businesses, and they've all been successful, so I'm excited that John's
family will soon be able to start one, too!

Direct Package to Pearl in the Philippines

A post from Barbara:
I recently received this letter from Pearl to thank me for her large box full of a year's supplies of items. Because it is much cheaper to ship a huge box to the Philippines rather than several smaller packages I collect things on sale during the year and then send them altogether. It also enables me to send larger and heavier items such as cans of food, a pillow, collapsible chair, large Teddy Bear, wellington boots, umbrella, etc., These items and many others can be seen in the photos.

Dear Sponsor

Hellow there! I am so happy to write a thank you letter for you! I hope your doing fine like us here.

I wanna say thank you for the direct package you sent for me and to my family. I have now pillow, toys, canned goods, stuffed toys, rice, towel, assorted clothes, books, umbrella, mug, Barbie necklace, book kit, Olympic mascot, accessories and many more.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it very much. My God bless you always.

Love Pearl Daphne
