Dear Children Sponsor

By Chou Chia-Yi | Project Leader

Sponsored child Xiaoyun is 7 years old this year. Her mother remarried, and her father works in another place, so she and her two siblings live with her grandmother. In such old age as her grandmom, it is really not easy to raise three little grandchildren. Xiaoyun is a caring, well-behaved, and sensible child. She always helps her grandmother with house chores and plays with her younger brothers and sisters.
Because her grandmother is illiterate, she couldn't help her three children with schoolwork. She doesn't even know how to write a letter to thank the children's sponsors who help Xiaoyun. As a social worker, every time Xiaoyun wants to write a letter to her sponsor, I will bring stationery and colored pens to help her, so that Xiaoyun and her younger siblings can convey their gratitude to the sponsors.
One time, Xiaoyun asked me, "Do you know where our parents are? Why haven't they come back to see us for a long time?"
While hearing this, I couldn't help but make my nose sour, and replied, "I don't know where they are..." I continued, "But I know that the sponsors, all the uncles and aunties, love you very much. They care about you in faraway; although you don't know them, they never forget you. They work hard and send sponsored gift money to your grandma to take care of you every month, hoping that you can eat well, go to school, grow up safely, and be happy..." After that, I saw the children's bright eyes sparkling, and the three small faces that were originally sad broke into a smile.
This time, I also wrote a letter to say "thank you" to all the children sponsors!
Thank you, you are a supporter of these children's life journey, and you have made complete the shortcomings of the children's original families. Your giving is not only providing financial help, but also making families and children in distress feel warm. Sow a love seed in children's hearts, so that they can be strong and courageous, then they are able to surpass the hardships of the environment, and grow with a positive heart.
