Happy Thanksgiving

We wanted to take a moment to let you know how thankful we are to have sponsors and donors like you. We wish you and your family nothing but the best this Thanksgiving and throughout the holiday season. The Taubu Schools are thankful for their 2 new motorcycles that will be used to bring books and supplies a one day journey to their schools and villages. Old Taubu has formed a Charity Board to report on what they are doing with our support and how funds are allocated. The New Taubu Village headman asked to know when we might be able to receive a phone call. He will go a days drive or a three days walk to the nearest town that has internet in order to contact Blessing Hands to thank us for all the school supplies, child support, books, and the 2 motorcycles you have given them and the nearby New Taubu Village. We want to buy a third motorcycle for the Khinphong Village School in Southern Chin State. Message us if you want to contribute toward that $460 motorcycle. It will open their village and its' school up to receive books and school supplies much quicker than renting a motorcycle for a day for $430. You can give any amount at this link.  I am Zhou Xiangmei, from a small village near Qinzhou City, Guangxi Province, China. I hope to become a qualified math teacher in the future. My parents are working at home as farm laborers. There is no stable work. The main source of income in the family is my parent's temporary work, so the income is meager. My parents have to bear the cost of schooling for their three children. My second brother is studying at Baise College, and my sister is studying in Guangxi Modern. I am studying at Guangxi Vocational College of Science and Technology. I have to pay more tuition at a vocational college. My older brother is now a repairman apprentice, but his income has not been able to help the family's economic pressure. I usually like to listen to music, run, and participate in activities with my classmates. If I can receive this scholarship, I will pass on this love in the future. Will you help her stay in school? She has taken out a loan and accepted a government scholarship, but she still needs more to cover her expenses of $2,357 a year. She is late in applying because she has tried other ways to support her college education. Finally she asked us for help, too. Blessing Hands wants to give Xiangmei a $650 yearly scholarship for four years. Give any amount here to help her. My dad is deceased and my mum went missing when I was very young. I am an orphan. I live with my uncle and my grandma. We are very poor. My uncle does not have good health and can’t do much labor. He has to look after my grandma and cover the expense of her treatments for her illness. I am now attending public boarding middle school. We have a huge expense every month. Seventh Grade 秦小燕 Qin Xiaoyan Will you help Qin Xiaoyan with her school expenses? She is in Daxu Junior High School near Guilin. She needs $322 (2250 yuan) for her yearly school expenses. You can give here. I got to meet Qin Xiaoyan in person in September. Her teacher brought her to us in the school office and stayed to make sure we would accept her into our program.  Sincerely, Betty Cutts for Blessing Hands 606 207 4785 email  ‌  ‌  ‌
