Christmas Gifts -Thanks to our new partners from GBTA (Global Business Travel Association) we were able to give the children at Tou Tou’s Orphanage a personal toilet bag with supplies, a toy and new shoes. The kids were thrilled with excitement!
Orphan and School Child Sponsorships -Thanks to our many partners for the outpouring of generosity to sign up as monthly Orphan and School Child Sponsor. Currently, there are several School Children still available for sponsorship. We are also receiving sponsorships for Amadeus Orphans even though the orphanage is still under construction. By sponsoring a Amadeus orphan now, you will help pay for staffing, training and administration necessary to adequately prepare for receiving in children during the summer 2012.
