Hand to Hand Foundation Newsletter June 2019
Updated: Nov 13, 2019
Donations
This month has been a month of tremendous blessing as we have had many companies and individuals donating new and used items to help support our work in Pattaya. We've had a lot of donations of used clothing and household items from people who have left the country and they are distributed as quickly as they come in. If you have any unwanted items including clothes, furniture, household items cleaning equipment or basically anything at all please feel free to pass it on so we can find new owners.
Church
This month we have been reading the Old Testament and learning how God gave us the authority to do powerful things in His name and we've been learning how much God loves us. We have 2 new air conditioners which makes us cool as we worship and pray.
Anti Human Trafficking
Hand to Hand participated in the march against human trafficking which raised awareness about this issue in the local Chonburi community. We also attended a meeting with many other GO's and NGO's where we had the opportunity to share strategy, build relationships and celebrate successes.
English Class
We've been having lots of fun with Miss Barbara and Mr Colin during our Saturday English classes. Our older students have been learning lots of vocabulary needed for their soccer training and our younger students have been concentrating on their numbers, colours and basic vocabulary.
Football
Our football team is going from strength to strength and we've had a few new members join this month. We are very grateful to all our coaches who give so freely of their time and expertise. We practice every Saturday at the Palladium football grounds which is just round the corner from Hand to Hand. The cost of renting these fields is 900 baht per week and if you'd like to help out with please contact us. We are very thankful for the 100's of football boots we have received but right now our cupboard is bare as we have given them all out. We have many more children waiting for football boots so if you any boots of any size new or used we can definitely find new owners.
Fraser's Sports Bar
A huge thanks to Fraser's sports bar who cook delicious food for us every Monday. The food is delivered hot and yummy so we can fill our tummies. A big thanks to all the staff at Fraser's sports bar who look after us.
