Project Report | Jun 13, 2016
Momentum throughout our projects

By Lois Hall | Team Leader of Fundraising

Care for Children Family Placement Conference
Care for Children Family Placement Conference

This year has seen growth, change and momentum build in all our project sites.

After hosting a successful Family Placement Conference in Beijing, China we look to move into a new season. China is entering a new project phase (Preparation for independence), which will focus on establishing five strategically located cities as pillars of best practice/training hubs for their respective regions. This is the third stage of our project methodology and it will allow us to offer a more deeper and advanced level of training which is a more innovative and strategic approach to advancing our family placement across China. 

In Thailand, we are developing a strategic programme to introduce foster care to all government run orphanages (National rollout stage), which will further facilitate and influence a national shift towards family-based care. We currently partner with 15 which will increase to 20 by the end of the year!  We will also publish our Thai training materials later this year making them accessible to organisations across Thailand.  

Our team have just completed a research project to Vietnam, which, although official reports have not been written up, has been fed back as a huge success! We are now in a better place to understand the need  in Vietnam and how we can meet that with the launch of a Pilot Project (stage one) in the near future! 

In Thailand, we are financially supporting up to 330 children in families with $24,250 still to raise this month. Alongside our family allowances our in-country teams have very busy training schedules with a goal of training 600 people this year! The average cost of a training workshop for 60 people is $25,700

The end of the year sees us host an international study visit to the UK which will cost up to $42,800. 

With the amazing start to the year we hope to continue this momentum as we head into our final six months. We appreciate these are big costs but any small donation you can give towards our project will be hugely beneficial and have impact on the many children we have the privaledge to serve. 

Thank you again for staying connected with our work.
