Hi everyone,
What a fast month! We are busy working on closing out our school sponsorship program. We have 57 children sponsored and only 7 children did not get sponsored. We will be leaving them up on our site as better late than never. You can view their info at: http://untilallhavehomes.org/FOG/sponsorship.html
Thanks for all the WONDERFUL donors who have supported this program both new and old. We have many new kids in the program this year and their stories are heart wrenching! We have also been blessed by some incredible donations. So we will be offering a 5 days a week feeding program for the school kids! YEAH! and also a 3 days a week feeding program to 100 local children in the poorest part of the city. If we can raise the money we hope to increase the days for those kids.
Our director in Burkina will be coming soon to stay in the US for a month. We will be working on several projects during her stay. Our feeding programs, a Christmas party and a self substaining program where we hope to plant gardens, buy livestock and teach some of the people some trades to support themselves. Again this is made possible by another GENEROUS donor :) We also are going to be working on a mission trip for sometime next year.
One of our incredible volunteers is working on collecting items from professional sports players and celebrities to do a big auction on Ebay next year. IF you would like to help with this please contact me at: ann@untilallhavehomes.org
Wendy the girl we are hoping to bring on a medical visa is still waiting. We have a green lite, we are just waiting on the paperwork. We were hoping Biba can bring her when she comes, but we are cutting that close. Thanks to ANOTHER generouse donor, all her airfare and the escorts airfare is PAID!! Can you say WOW!!! to all the incredible ppl who have been so kind to donate and help us with our projects!!!!!
As for the orphanage. still no kids. We are still waiting on ONE person to sign the paper, obviously they are in no hurry. While Biba is here we will be discussing some other possibilites for the orphanage. Maybe becoming more specialized! I promise to post more once we get God's direction on this and have time to sit down and talk!
Thanks for checking in! I am truly blessed by so many people with caring hearts! THANK YOU!!! You all have changed my life by your incredible support!!
The picture today is of 2 boys from a family of 7 (four of the kids are sponsored in our school program) at their house. Their mother is very sick and also has a baby. A wonderful donor is paying for her diagnostic care and treatment. Please pray for her, she is VERY sick and they are very poor!
Where there is no vision, the people perish! Thanks for being a part of that vision!
Ann
