25 New Child Profiles

Last week in the mail, I received 25 new child profiles!!!

When our sponsor team was in India in February, we met "our" 3rd grade class from Madanpur Khadar. We decided to pull each kid out one at a time to take a picture for you guys... and in the process we kept taking pictures of kids I previously didn't have record of. CHC set out to investigate if these kids didn't need sponsors or already had sponsors from someone else. And when the answers came back and we discovered they were available, of course the band said "We'll take em!"

These kids are so adorable! They've got great names like Tapas, Master (pictured here), and even Ravi Shankar. There are 8 girls in the new group. Most of the kids live with 4-8 children in the home!

So, now we set out with the goal to raise up 25 new sponsors for these kids. In addition, we still have 8 children from our Jasola 3rd graders that need sponsors (these are the additional kids we got profiles for the week before our February Trip).

DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE in your circle of friends WHO MIGHT WANT TO SPONSOR A CHILD? We would love to have them join our group of sponsors. You can send them a link to our "Who Are We?" tab on this blog and if they are interested in sponsoring, here's the link that shares "How Do I Sponsor?"

My personal goal is to find sponsors for all 33 children by JULY 4th... Independence Day... a reminder to me that an education for these kids equals hope that they might one day live in freedom from the poverty of their childhood! Will you help us meet that goal?
