Pitching In, Working Together
Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much. ~Helen Keller
Construction of our newest Believe in Me School at Sokhem village, Cambodia is in progress. This project is truly a team effort – from our sponsors supporting the project to the children who will be attending school!
Last week, the truck bringing rocks for the floor of the school couldn’t reach the construction site due to rain and mud, so the rocks had to be dumped about 20 minutes from the school’s location.
The children didn’t want their new school to be delayed, so they decided to bring the rocks to the school themselves.
They worked all day moving rocks into the school to form the foundation of the floor.
75% of the children who will be attending the Believe in Me Sokhem school aren’t even in the 1st percentile for growth. We are so happy to be working long-term to help these kids nutritionally by providing hot lunches through our School Nutrition project.
We believe all children deserve full tummies so that they can focus on learning and reaching their true potential, and we’re working hard so these kids can do just that.
We are so very thankful for everyone who is pitching in to help make this school and hot lunch program a possibility for these precious children. Together, we can accomplish so much!
