Aiming at creating an opportunity for college students in our Student Houses program to do social work in their summer break, LOVE organized a festive day out. The event was made in a community house in Hoa Bac ward on June 12. Over 100 children were blessed on the day when they could join many interesting games, enjoy good food, receivie beautiful accessories and school supplies and be educated in the children’s rights. All the activities including games, food stalls, gift counters that were prepared and handled by nearly 35 students under the the guidance and supervision of LOVE’s staff. It indeed brought so much joy and laughter to all students and children and left them unforgetable nice memories. When talking to some children, we were given thanks and encouragements to continue to do such significant activities in the future.

LOVE’S BOARD OF DIRECTORS VISIT

Mr. Reggie Coward, LOVE’s President, visited Vietnam from June 5 to 17. Accompanying him was Nhan Pham, a sponsor and also a Member of the Board of Directors. They spent most of their time attending all the distribution days at the local wards and districts, talking with sponsored children, visiting student houses, meeting with children’s families and other activities. They also joined the festive day out with students. Their visit truly brought a big encouragement for all children, students and staff.

An English family Visit

Vuong Nhi’s sponsor and her family visited him and his family. This is their 3rd time to Vietnam, and the 2nd time to visit their sponsored children. She was very happy meeting with her sponsored boy and his family and being impressed by his improvements in English. Also, she and her friends in her hometown donated many toothbrushes, pencils, pens, soaps, etc. and we’ll soon deliver to the poor children in our program.

Sponsors Needed

Right now, there is a needy child living in poverty who is waiting for a caring person like you. We have many children who need sponsors.

To see these children or to fill out an application go to our web site by clicking child. Without your help, many of these will not finish school. For just $30 a month you can see that the child you choose will break the cycle of poverty by getting a good education, better food, clothing, and shelter. For more information about these children or an application form, you can also contact Reggie.

Please pray that we can find sponsors for all our children and put your prayers to work by sharing the need with your church, Sunday School Class, civic club, etc.

PLEASE HELP!

Share your love and faith

These children urgently need sponsors who will support a child for $30 a month or the whole family for $50 a month, and will pray for them, write and encourage them.
