Thanks so much for helping to provide a year* of school for Wilson.
Fourteen year old Wilson lost his parents in 2009. After his parents died his grandmother tried to care for him and his brothers, but she couldn't afford to feed them. So she was forced to abandon them at the HTDC orphanage.
But with so many other needs, like food, to worry about the orphanage couldn’t provide Wilson with an education.
Without an education, Wilson’s future looked bleak. Wilson is a very helpful child, who always wants to do his best. But without the ability to read or write he would be doomed to a life of poverty.
Yet Wilson is lucky, because he has you in his life.
Your fantastic generosity means that we’ll be able to keep Wilson in school and learning the skills he needs to build a brighter tomorrow. Wilson's been doing really well in school, but if he needs extra help we’ll be there to get him the tutoring he needs.
We’ll be able to support Wilson because you chose to give. There are so many things you could have spent your hard earned money on, but you chose Wilson. Thanks so much.
We’ll keep updating you about Wilson and all his classmates through this project’s parent page, Provide a Safe Home for Haitian Orphans. If you ever have any questions about how we're using your donation, please email andy@IDVolunteers.org. We’d love to hear from you!
Thanks again, and very kind regards!
