Wow what a year 2019 has been for us and through your support we have fed 3 850 families and a total of 19, 116 people. Everyone from old homeless people to new borns who were abandoned at birth.
Thanawat is a special little boy who is very disabled and he has been fed through a nasal gastric tube all of his life. He cannot walk, talk or see and when we would visit him, he didn't move much or respond to touch. After a year of having proper nutrition he has nbow gained weight and he makes squeals of delight when he hears us coming. His smile lights up the room when you stroke his face and he is now very responsive. His grandma is so thankful and happy too as she watches him thrive and grow.
We had a Christmas party for approximately 200 people and each family recieved a 5kg bag of rice. We also gave out bags of rice in the slum families and to our pre school families. In total we gave away almost 600 kg of rice in 1 week.
Thank you so much for your generosity that enables us to make a difference in these people lives because without your support we simply could not do this!
Happy New Year and we are excited about helping more people in 2020!
