About me: There are four members in my family. As my father died when we were young and there is only my mother, who is often sick, is the main earner in our family so our income is very low and we do really meet many challenges in our daily life. My grandmother is nearly 70 year old now and we can’t rely on her help anymore. As a result, I and my brother rarely have a chance to have extra classes like our friends. I wish I am able to learn to be a good lawyer in the future so that I can help my family and poor people. However, at the moment, this ambition is too far for me to reach. I wish to receive support so that our family condition will get a little better and I can achieve my ambition. Family members: · Nguyen Thi Lan (December 10th 1946) - Grandmother · Nguyen Thi Kim Anh (May 6th 1972) - Mother · Phan Thien Long (January 7th 1996) – Older Brother
LOVE’s note: Family sponsorship is recommended---they were dropped by a sponsor having financial difficulities.

LOVE's commitment to our sponsors and the children/families: 1. We will send progress reports twice a year and when special needs occur such as severe illness. 2. We will translate all correspondence between you and the child. 3. We will deliver letters, packages, etc. (many cannot receive mail at their homes). We encourage sponsors to: 1. Be faithful in your financial commitment. 2. Build a relationship with the child/family: Write letters or emails to the child at least twice a year. Generously share your Christian faith! 3. Send gifts for birthdays, Christmas, and Tet, when you can. (or send us money and tell us what to buy...that is usually more cost effective.) |

How sponsorship funds are used: Sponsorship Program | Description | Child | Family | Scholarship(s) | This will pay for school fees and most other required fees | 150,000 vnd | 200,000 vnd | Food | This will provide money for more nutritious food | 100,000 vnd | 200,000 vnd | Medical/ Emergency Insurance Fund | This will go into a self insurance fund within LOVE that we can draw from to help our children for medicine, medical, hospital, dental, clothing, shoes, and for small emergency needs. | 86.000 vnd | 129.600 vnd | School Supplies | Provides school uniform, text books, school fees and insurance | 20,000 vnd | 40,000 vnd | Administration | This 20% fee covers our administrative cost. | 89.000 vnd | 142.400 vnd | | Total in Viet Nam Dong | 445,000 vnd | 712,000 vnd | | Total in USD (Average Exchange Rate: 17.800 vnd = $1) | $25 | $40 |
For money sent for gifts (birthdays, Christmas, etc.): We survey the child’s needs (and wants) to buy the best gifts. We often take the child shopping to see they get value per dollar. In most cases, we advise against giving more than a few dollars in cash because they spend it unwisely, or a parent may take the money for cigarettes or beer, etc. LOVE will charge a 10% administrative fee on these and all other donations to help support other programs such as medical, dental and scholarships for children not yet sponsored. |
Other needs:  $30 can provide eye exam & glasses for a child. $50 will buy a bicycle.$200 can dig a well, or roof a small house. $50 to rent a house. $60 will buy a gas stove...most cook over wood or charcoal filling the house with smoke. $2,000 will build a 360 sq. ft. house for a family of 3.
-add $500 to enlarge for each additional 100 sq. ft. Cost is about 50% higher in remote areas. |
|
Our Calling: By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. But whoever has this world's goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the loveof God abide in him? My little children, let us not love in word or
in tongue, but in deed and in truth. (1 John 3:16-18 NKJV) |
