Just a quick update——
Children’s Village in Kobryn Belarus: 8 homes for orphans.
After decades of wear and tear, each home needed a big new sleeper-sofa.
Generous friends of New Thing have given enough to replace 6 and two-thirds sofas!
The orphans in 6 homes are celebrating.
The orphans in 2 homes are still hoping.
When I contact our “Response of the Heart” team next week, I really hope I can say:
“No orphan gets left out. We made the goal!”
We’re only $1324.06 short of the goal: new sofas for ALL the orphans, not just some.
Maybe we have 20 friends who could give a $66.20 gift?
Anything you give will go twice as far, thanks to an awesome dollar-for-dollar Matching Challenge.
Thanks for loving the orphans!
Much love,
Doug Brendel
