THANK YOU

T, 15 years old, is an orphan living with elderly grandparents

“I am writing to say how much I appreciate all the help you have given me for my school. I am very happy at boarding school and I have made a lot of wonderful friends. My friends come and stay with me at my grandparents’ house at weekends and I go to theirs.

My school has really helped me enormously with my work which I enjoy doing. They have encouraged me with my music. I have just taken my exam for my piano and passed and they are now arranging for me to take my next exam on my flute for my grade 7. I enjoy all of my music and when we go back to the boarding house I enjoy the spare time with my friends”


Letter from a mother:

“Thank you again for your continued support which has been so vital to us over the years. On a personal note I have had a reccurrence of my cancer, this time in my lungs. I am fighting it hard and am optimistic, but it does mean that your support comes at a time when it is needed more than ever”


S, 14, is an orphan living with her aunt, who writes:

“S is a typical fourteen year old with all the highs and lows that seem to go with adolescence! We had a very difficult summer holiday last year, which I feel was caused by the readjustment to her new life in Cornwall. S is particularly sensitive to change and it did take a lot of time and reassurance for her to begin to settle down. The school was thoroughly supportive of my efforts. S went through almost a year of youth counselling mainly over the bereavement of her mother. On the whole she seems to have come out with renewed enthusiasm and I am hopeful we may have turned a corner”


Letter from D, aged 12. His mother is suffering from mental health problems:

“Thank you to everyone who sponsored me. If it wasn’t for you I wouldn’t be at this school. I am doing well and I am enjoying it. I can’t believe that this year has gone so fast. I will keep in touch with you. Thanks again for everything”.

Please help us help more children like these.
