Sponsorship program
Monday, April 10, 2006

This projects been placed on ArmyBarmy so I'd better explain it a bit for every one.
Thousands of Chinese people can not afford a primary school education so must work for the family in order to survive, they can not read, write and many do not even know Chinese!!
The plan is simple for$36 (Aus) a year you can support a Child’s education.
The project is run by the Hong Kong Christian council (of which the Salvation Army is part of) they are not allowed to preach the gospel. HKCC will send you photos, personal information on the child and school reports. All I need is the name and address so that the books can get to the people. I can not go into details of how these books will get there for obvious reasons.
you can do that here: http://hkcc.org.hk/BTS/e010.asp

Another option for those interested is to sponsor a whole CHRISTIAN SCHOOL.
Christian schools are illegal and need financial support. The sponsorship programme has no set price but I would be looking for a larger monthly payment than the government supported program (around $50Aus). That money will go straight to Christian children who are eager to learn about Jesus and his grace. However it is not tax deductible :)
