Lots of Good News!
Ms. Liu is the Officer in blue who has been handling our case in Guangxi
Ms. Liu, in blue, is the officer who has been handling our case in Guangxi. Matthew Liu, our chief agent in China, and Anna Liu, our administrator in Qinzhou, are also with me in the picture. 
Ms. Liu at the Security Bureau of Guangxi Province will get our papers from the internet soon and process them as soon as possible. The papers have cleared the Education Department inspection and their lawyers. If there are no problems with the papers at the Security Bureau, maybe we will get certified before the end of this month rather than waiting until next month.
WOW that door is swinging open. Now I can plan my November trip to China. It will be a busy time while we try to get permission to help kids in Hubei Province also. We will get an official seal that is required everywhere in China, a bank account in our name, and assistance with records. We have found a volunteer accountant who will work with a volunteer (but required) auditor of our Guangxi Province books. Things are coming together. I am excited. Now we can help more students if sponsors step up to help.

You can help with the expenses of this registration by giving any amount at this link

Thank for your help, support and concern for 11 years,

Founder and Director of Blessings Hands


Updated Map of Blessing Hands in China

We have updated our map of China that shows where Blessing Hands has programs. We have 10 programs now in 5 provinces of China. Once we have our certification in Guangxi, we can present our seal for approval in other provinces and go through their requirements to register there. We will first start with Hubei this fall when I go to China again. We already have an open door with the government of Chibi City.

He Xingping_s sponsor has been helping her for years and now she will send her to college.
2017 - He Xingping has a sponsor 
of you. You have changed the life of a student, family, village, and nation, because you sponsored Blessing Hands and our students. The two featured in our last newsletter are now sponsored.                                                    
We also have older students, who are sending their grades and applications in now. Some of them have lost sponsors or need a little more to top off their scholarships.  You can give any amount on this page for our older scholarship students.

We will also be contacting you who sponsor our primary, middle school, and high school students to remind you to send in your sponsorship again. It is that time of year.

A lovely lady in Lexington has given us Chinese painting to help Blessing Hands. We will be glad to give them away for a $100 donation that will help our students. I am featuring them here.
