ANNOUNCING

NEW FAMILY FOUNDATION'S

DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR CAMPAIGN

GOAL: $20,000.00

May to August, 2021

To donate  Dollar For Dollar

 It's really happening!!!

As of May 25th and taking us through to August 31st, 2021 we will be running a Dollar for Dollar Fundraising Campaign aimed at helping us take some next steps in the development of our new property.

Recap

Currently the children of New Family Foundation live quite happily on the grounds of Hot Springs Methodist Church about 45 km west of Chiang Mai.  Since the beginning, this has served us fairly well, especially with some renovations to rooms and bathrooms, and other government required upgrades.

But the property doesn't belong to us, is not on deeded land, and doesn't comply with long range stipulations being incrementally implemented now as pertains to children's care homes.

The view from the property.

We have secured property not far from the Church (so the ministry there can continue) and closer to the schools where our kids attend.  It was a four year process to secure the deed; a tedious experience that delayed any sort of fundraising and made it something of a risk to begin any of the initial projects.

But as of March 2020 the deed was in hand.

Then the pandemic hit.  (How many times has that sentence been used in telling our stories of late?)

Yes, that gave us pause.  But I am delighted to let you know that even in these stalled out times, God has opened doors.  A donation was given to allow us to build the road needed to take us from the main village road into where we hope to build our dorms and kitchen.  Now we are getting more serious and are itching to get at the other start up projects, plus the payments still left on the property to secure it for New Family Foundation in the future.

A donor has agreed to match dollar for dollar up to $20,000.00 everything raised between May and August of this year.

May arrived malnourished and withdrawn. 
But now?

Over the past 13 years it has been such a moving gift to watch at risk and orphaned children like May thrive under the care of our Home Parents, Pastors Suradet and Yupa.  The need in Southeast Asia is great.  AIDS, poverty, and political unrest mean tragic conditions for so many children.  Covid-19's impact on Thailand economy cannot be overstated.  

We want to see our reach expand to be able to welcome 30 children at at time into our care.

Will you join us?

Ways you can participate:

Donate using the Dollar for Dollar link above.  That will take you to Highview's webpage where further instructions will provide all the information you need.  All donations are tax deductible.

Pass it around.  Every time you like and share this post, more people will see.  We need to get the word out there.

Pray.  If you are the praying sort, we'll be grateful for it all.  This has been a long time coming, and we want to stay in step with God's Spirit as we go.

Thank you!

So many have already supported these precious kids in years past, and we are beyond grateful for everything given.  And for every person who might contribute to this campaign, I pray blessings and joy for you in equal measure.  Your contribution is more than financial.  It is such an encouragement and truly a life saver for some of God's treasures on the other side of the world.

The mission of New Family Foundation is to provide a loving home for at-risk and orphaned children in Northern Thailand to help them achieve their best potential in education, vocation and service to society.
