Mandy and Ian Whitehead send their thanks

Ian and Mandy Whitehead wrote to us earlier this week to say:
'Thank you very much for making Jessica's gap year so successful. Your name is just right. You got the balance between 'giving young people both roots and wings'just right.

We always felt you cared for her yet wanted her to step outside the world hse had known previously.

You also struck a balance between the needs of the young person and the needs of those they were helping. There was also a balance between having fun, learning and working.

Jess learned Spanish and about working with children and adults yet enjoyed a good social life both with the locals and other volunteers.

Thanks again for sending back our daughter with all the good characteristics she had before yet added to.
Mandy and Ian'

Thanks too to Jess for being such a wonderful volunteer for us in Honduras.

I have, of course, passed the thanks on to Kenny Mackay (the Changing Worlds representative) and his family in San Pedro Sula.

Selvyn at Premavasam, an orphanage in India, signs in

Selvyn the director at Premavasam orphanage in Southern India has been in touch to say:

'Dear David,

Lots of love and greetings from Prema Vasam!

I have been thinking to E-mail you for a long time, somehow could not make it. I am so happy to inform you that our first child Indra has got her fourth semester university results, we are very proud of her, she has scored 80% marks. This is the final year, she need to concentrate more on her studies. Of course in the evenings she helps the poor children from our village. During the summer holidays she has updated our website www.premavasam.com a big thanks go to her .

During this month some of our children Vijay, Rajalakshmi, Jancy and Vidhya have celebrated their birthdays, as usual a new dress has been given as a birthday gift and the birthday cake too.

Pavithra and Angel

In this month two special children Pavithra who is lying and Angel who is sitting next to her have joined our Prema Vasam family. Though our house is full with children, we could not say "no" to them.

During this week end we took some of our children to Besant nagar beach for an outing. Our children could not spend more time due to the unexpected showers of rain. Outings and picnics give so much joy and happiness to our children.

The construction work is going on very well. The final stage is going on, by this month we want to shift our boys to our own building as you are aware more than a year they have been living in the rented house with much struggle due to the congested place.

The whole world is affected due the recession, we are also affected financially so badly. Hence we need your wishes and prayers in order to cope up with the financial crisis.

I am sure you would agree with me that these children are looked after by the providence of God and with the support of kind hearted people like you.

With much love,
Selvyn.'

If you feel you would like to help - provide financial assitance or your time as a volunteer then do let me know.
