Like many of our children, Tae has a strong sense of care for family members that remain in difficult situations in her home village, wanting to use the opportunities she's been given to make life a little easier. You can also see reflected in Tae's own words, the understanding that being successful in her studies, and then later in her chosen vocation, will provide her with a degree of dignity. This is the meaning behind the translated words 'not cause any problems for myself,' as indirect at it might sound in English.
This is such an important part of helping kids with early memories of trauma and poverty launch into adult lives that allow them to stand up tall with quiet confidence.
If you'd like to be a part of it, for Tae and the four other young women you'll hear about in the next few days, please take a moment to respond to the SEEDS Fundraiser mailing, that you may have received recently.
And if you are not on our mailing list, you can still donate by sending an e-transfer to donations@hcckw.ca (Memo: NFF Seeds, Password Foundation).
Thank you!
NOTE: In Canadian Dollars it takes approximately $2,000 per year to send one student to post secondary education in Thailand. We currently have five students.
With deep gratitude for all the love, support and care from Tae's Sponsor in particular, and all those who faithfully help make these stories possible!
