Teachers, families and students from QSI in Shekou, Shenzhen filled a van with food, clothing and other necessities and sent it off to Project Eden. With this project growing in numbers, it’s donations like these that make a huge difference to the monthly operating budget. You guys are terrific. Thanks also to SIS Bayside where students ran bake sales and other events to raise money for much needed supplies and gave 20 boxes of clothing. Having both schools involved in supporting this local project is amazing.
My name is Tsedan and I am 29 years old. I missed out on going to school because my parents thought that boys are more important than girls. Now that I have my own family, I want my three children to be able to go to school - an opportunity that I didn’t have.
