Milk donation 30 April and 14 May 2024 🌟
We have been expanding our volunteer activities and cooperating with the local Fa Ham government. This time they requested we purchase milk to be given to families with children that have special needs. This milk will be part of the food donations that the government also provides. On 30 April we made our way to visit Fa Ham City hall and donated boxes of milk.
To respect the privacy of these families, we don’t usually go directly to their homes. However, the Fa Ham officers invited us (with permission) to join them on their delivery on 14 May. When we arrived, Fa Ham officers had vehicles ready to drive us to two different locations.
First we visited the family of a 10
year old boy. He was shy, but also very polite despite meeting so many new people. The family was gracious to let us meet them and talk with them a bit.
Next we visited the family of a very energetic and active 4 year old girl. Her mother talked about how her daughter used to be non-verbal, but she has learned ways to express herself very clearly in other ways. She was having a wonderful time pouring rocks into a metal bowl. Her mother told us it helps her to have sensory play.
What a unique opportunity to meet these members of this community.
