Longfu Primary children received school suppliessee more pictures if you click on the pictures.
The three primary school we help in Longfu Township in Du'an County of Guangxi Province received their spring supplies from Blessing Hands recently. Ping pong is a favorite sport, so sports equipment included ping pong balls as well as basketballs, badminton rackets, hula hoops, and jump ropes. We collect money by cash jars in Chinese restaurants to support this program.While Dr. Dai was visiting the three schools he took foot measurements so all the students can have new shoes for spring thanks to you wonderful sponsors.
Blessing Hands' Anlong students who will be at the campAnlong Summer CampWe are excited about our Friendship Summer Camp from June 20 through June 25th. We will be teaching in the regular English classes of Anlong No.1 High School for the first three mornings of the camp. In the afternoons, we will teach the school's English teachers. For the last two days of the camp, we will teach our own Blessing Hands students and 50 students supported by Community Roots China, a NGO located in Shanghai.We will be sharing about US education, medicine, customs, holidays, music, art, government, and national parks. We have four volunteer American teachers and four volunteer translators. I am looking forward to having more time with our Chinese students and their teachers to share the values of Blessing Hands.You can help us by donating just for this camp.
Thanks and Blessings,Betty Cutts, Director of Blessing Hands
