Morning tea for the children

Yay, it's time once again to unite and have a morning tea and a catch up for those who are interested.

I have a film to show that I put together from my last visit to the orphanage for those who donated last time and for those who have donated this time, not to mention those that are just interested in the idea (or just want to eat yummy cake).

Also I will be there to address any concerns or questions anyone may have regarding the charity.

Plus it is a great way to get together for a catch up and eat some yummy food even if you have already giving a donation.

Stay posted for the finer details as I am currently organising a venue as you read this.

Looking forward to seeing you all very soon.

What we are about ...

Please help keep the smiles on these beautiful children’s faces at the
Widhya AsiahII Orphanage
Blimbingsari, Bali, Indonesia

These orphans in Bali, Indonesia, have only one another. Basic needs such as food, medicine, soap, paper and pens are a luxury for them.
The government does not help!
Ibu Renny, the owner and carer of the orphanage, does her best. But there is only one of her and 78 children with 78 mouths to feed. This is where your contributions will help.
$20 to us is lunch on a Friday. $20 to them means a child can eat for 2 weeks, bathe with soap, have paper to write on, go to school, have access to medicine and most importantly smile!
I give them my time, knowledge and attention by volunteering at the school and spending quality time with the children to help them with social and emotional skills, please feel free to help by making your own donation. Your generosity is appreciated, trust me I’ve seen it in their faces. Without family and siblings life is tough, not to mention amongst poverty. These children like any have the same fears - plus more. They hold the fear of getting a fever or an infection as this can lead to death. Panadol is rarely available to these orphans. Last year using just $10 out of the donation money we saved a little boys life. Every little bit counts. The rest of the money put the children in school - it's a child’s right to be educated - or is it? Not all these children are able to attend school due to lack of funds. But with last year’s donations they all went, with new books and pencils.
Last year, with your help, we raised $823 this year let's make that happen again. Keep the smiles on the children's faces that have such warm hearts and as much right to the basics in life as we do. The money enabled me to buy 400kg of rice and 200litres of cooking oil, along with soap, toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, books, pens and pencils for all the children. 10 brand new bikes were purchased for the orphanage so the high school kids could ride the 14km journey to school and back each day instead of walk.
So as you can see every little bit counts :o) Thank you for taking the first step by reading this letter.
