Christmas

Christmas is getting closer! Last year I shared about an opportunity for any of you interested in donating money towards Christmas gifts for the students we work with in Thailand at the Akha Youth Development Center. We were blown away by the kindness of so many of you who responded. Because of your generosity, Christmas last year for our students included a trip to the local market where they were able to each spend $15 on a gift for themselves. In fact, your generous giving even raised extra money to cover the annual sponsorship costs of 3 students without sponsors. Here is the video we put together expressing their gratefulness to your kindness.



My heart melts everytime I see their faces!

How many kids do you know in America who would use their Christmas money to buy a new pair of socks and toothpaste?

If you are interested in donating towards Christmas gifts this year please e-mail me at: lynettepolinder@gmail.com, and I will send you information on where to send your gift that will also provide you with a tax deductible receipt. If you are simply interested in learning more about the Akha Youth Development Center you can visit our website here.
