Urgent need for sponsors to help a child receive an education

We have today received new applications for school sponsorship from a number of children living in desperate circumstances.

If you would like to consider helping a child to a better life by helping that child have an education please take a look at the children needing sponsorship so that they can attend school on our website:

Evacuation at the Hauy Phong Children's Home

 

As we support the work of the Hauy Phong Children's Home where there are more than 300 children being cared for we keep in regular contact with the staff at the home.
Last week chemical explosions at an industrial plant a few miles from the home meant evacuating all of the children and staff some 40 miles away to Banglamung. This brief email from the head social worker at the home advises that they are all safe and well.

"How are You? I hope you are very well .last week had an accident at Chemical industrial mabtaput near our home. IT 's explosion. We immigrate to banglamung chonburi. but now everything is clear and return.
I am very glad too. Now everyone are safe. But those day some children/staff are fainted.
thank you very much from our heart
see you ka"

Sponsors' gift for two sisters

A few days ago  sponsors who were unable to be in Pattaya at this time gave two little girls and their grandparents a super treat by sending some money for a birthday shopping treat.

Unfortunately, although it had been arranged ahead of time, when Suky went to pick them up, another family member had already taken Thipwan out somewhere and they weren't back. However, since they are virtually the same size, Wanvisa decided that she would be responsible for choosing Thipwan's things - and a very good job of it she made, too.

It seems that she likes everything yellow, and her sister's favourite colour is pink, so Suky and she did try to stick to this, although it wasn't always possible because of the size. That said, after choosing new outfits, they bought a soft toy and a big bucket of KFC and a birthday cake to take home to share with family and friends - the very first time they'd ever been given such a treat. Everyone was so happy.

It seems that their aunt is married to a farang, and so her children have lots of lovely things and the girls are used to getting their cast-offs, for which they're grateful, but it's not the same as being able to have something beautiful AND new AND all their own, you know?  

We were thrilled to learn that Wanvisa is first in her class of 40 students. Isn't that great? Thipwan is not doing quite so well, she is 14th in her class, but when we think of such big numbers of students we reckon that's pretty good, too.

Shopping gift for Scholarship student

An unexpected gift from his sponsor provided an opportunity for a shopping trip for 12 year old Nawin one of our Scholarship students.

At Tesco / Lotus Nawin chose a radio controlled car for himself and then used the remainder of the money to buy food for his family. After the shopping trip it was back to his home with the rewards of his shopping trip.
