Since our last update three months ago, you have helped us nearly double the total amount raised for our Little Angels Learning Center program! We are incredibly grateful and humbled by your generous support.
The Little Angels students have truly benefited from the additional resources your donations have provided for them. You've given them new books that spark their interest in reading, new supplies for fun art and craft projects, and possibly the most important- two nutritious meals a day. In developing countries, one out of six children is underweight and under nourished, contributing to 2.6 million deaths of children under five each year. In order to have an opportunity to thrive, children must have adequate nutrition, which is why Mustard Seed Communities makes this a priority at our Little Angels Learning Centers. Your donations help cover the associated costs and provide our students with energy, focus, and nutrition so that they can continue to learn at their highest possible level.
Lately, the students have especially loved their sing-a-long time. Their favorite songs range from "If You're Happy and You Know It" to "Create In Me A Clean Heart". This high-energy activity gives the Little Angels an opportunity to work on memorization and cooperation skills, while also allowing them the chance to let their unique personalities shine through.
We thank you again for joining us in supporting the education and nutritional needs of underprivileged preschool students in Jamaica. Because of your support our Little Angels Learning Centers can continue to grow, thrive, and reach the Jamaican children most in need.
