Scholarships Needed

 

Typhoon Carina Relief at Riversprings School

in the Philippines

Riverspring School Receives Food Supplies

from Blessing Hands.

Twenty students sponsored by Blessing Hands received rain gear.

The total expense came to $1,755. We still need to receive about $1,000 more to cover the cost.

Give For Cyclone Relief.

One hundred and eighty students and twenty-four staff members and teachers received sugar, rice, sardines, canned meatloaf, a package of biscuits, packs of instant noodles, and coffee for $8.04 each.

Steve and Jill Hill of Christ's Kingdom Come Ministry also gave rice to them.

It is College Scholarship time. We expect nine new scholarships will be needed this fall. You can change their life by sponsoring a college student.

Hello, my name is Huiying. I am 18 from Guilin, China. I graduated from Daxu High School. Unfortunately my dad suffered a comminuted fracture in an accident while working a few years ago, and my grandpa is too old to work to earn my keep. Our main income relies on my mom who works in the fields.


Having passed the national entrance test, my ideal is to become a teacher. We have great pressure under the high cost for college, so I would like to apply for a scholarship from Blessing Hands.


This family's income is $7,747 a year, which is not enough to send her to college. She has been accepted into Guilin Kuan College to study to be a primary school Chinese language teacher. Blessing Hands is featuring her in hopes that a sponsor can be found to give her a yearly $650 scholarship for three years.

Give $650 For Huiying

Hello everyone. My name is Haifan. I am from Daxu High School in Guilin, China. I am enrolled at the Liuzhou City Vocational Institute majoring in Health Management. It will take me three years. There are six members in my family: my granny, my parents, an elder sister, and a younger sister. My granny is always taking medication due to her poor health.


Going to college takes a large amount of money. Being in a large family with three girls makes for financial difficulties. I would like to apply for a $650 college scholarship from Blessing Hands for three years. Thanks.

Give $650 for Haifan.

Hello everyone. My name is Yixuan. I am 17 years old from Guilin, China. I graduated from the Daxu High School. There are five people in my family: my parents, grandparents, and I. My granny is always under the weather and needs to take medication, and my grandpa is too old to make money.


My ideal always was to go to a good college. I have been accepted by Gannan Health Vocational College to become a nurse. We’re under great pressure because of the huge cost for college. Being poor, I would like to apply for a three-year scholarship from Blessing Hands.


Thanks.

Flood Relief in Myanmar

Flood Relief in Myanmar

A Village near Yangon Receives Food and Supplies

from Blessing Hands.

Blessing Hands recently gave $2,000 for rice and other supplies to flood victims in Myanmar. A village of 130 lost 35 houses out of 60 homes. The village is located fifty miles from the capital city of Yangon.


Bie wrote, "Your help is very, very, very helpful for the needy. If there are more opportunities for them still, they need help. The water will not come down very quickly. Thank you every one of you for donations. God bless you all for His Kingdom. Amen."

Much more rice is needed for more people without food. Please give

Two friends of Blessing Hands, Bie and Di, helped deliver and arrange rice for a village that was flooded in Myanmar.

Visit our Website to give.

ARTS and CRAFTS FESTIVAL


We had a great table response at the Morehead Arts and Crafts Festival despite the morning rain. We raised $276 for flood relief in Myanmar where 300 have died in a flood resulting from a cyclone.

Debbie Fang donated some of her Chinese watercolor paintings to Blessing Hands. We got $20 donations for several of them. I even got one for our kitchen.


Ale-8 gave us some products to give for a donation. We also had volunteers who wrote people's names in Chinese and Telugu, an Indian dialect.

Xiaomin Oney and Betty Cutts manned the table in the morning. Debbie Wang's paintings generated a lot of interest. We will have them available for a $20 donation during the Harvest Festival in Morehead too.

Our board secretary, Kayla Mitchell, came to help in the afternoon. It really helps to have two people at the table so two can talk to different festival goers at one time.

BLESSING HANDS SCHOOL


The school in Old Taubu Village School is nearly finished. They are clearing the area in front of the school to make a playground and getting ready for a dedication ceremony. They have insisted on putting up a marker giving credit to Blessing Hands and calling it Blessing Hands School. We made a video for them to show at the dedication. They built the school themselves, so they are very excited to see it finished. We supplied the materials, but they did the work.
