Our Dear Kids/Nossas Criancas Queridas

PORTUGUES ABAIXO

Dear Sweet Donors

Just a little uptade on our kids. And when I say "our" it means they are yours too :)

Unfortunately we had to cancel the dinner pack from now on, it represented an expense of almost ETB 3000 a month and we could not afford it anymore. The parents were very comprehensive about it, and agreed with us that our priority must be to feed the kids at school. But I really feel bad, because I know that dinner pack was making a difference in their lives. Maybe things will change in the future.

The good news is that we have at the moment ETB 13, 132, and adding the monthly constant donations (ETB 2220 per month), WE WILL BE ABLE TO MAKE IT UNTIL THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so happy because this was our inital goal, to feed them for this school year, and with your help we are going to make it !!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU !!!!!

Ah ! This included dinner for Marcus as he doesn't have a family to rely on. Also ETB 120 a month for Almas, who is the cook at Mekdela School and helps us with much love.

ICS, the school where Marc teaches, agreed to include 4 of our kids in a theater play. My greatest surprise is Membere. I think she is not only talented for painting but also for acting hahaha You all know Membere story and it is a great happiness to be able to add something to her life. She will get, in form of food and clothes, 10% from the Yoga Group donation as they have just picked her painting.

Arwa, my darling, I still have Elyas Christmas money, and Genet and I finally decided we are getting him clothes. I checked for bycicles, but everybody was against it. They said it would get stollen. So tomorrow, no later than tomorrow, I am going to get the little guy some funky clothes, and in the same trip will get Membere a backpack and some clothes as well. I love going shopping for them hahaha

We will make it this year. Great job everybody, God bless you and give you double, triple of what you have given our kids.

Love,

Marc & Connie Richter

Queridos doadores queridos...

So uma notinha rapida sobre as nossas criancas, e quando eu digo nossas criancas eu quero dizer que elas sao de voces tambem :)

Infelizmente nos itvemos que cancelar o kit jantar esse mes, isso representava um gasto de quase ETB 3000 por mes, and nos nao podiamos arcar com esse gasto. Os pais foram muito compreensivos sobre isso, e concordaram com a gente que a prioridade e alimentar as criancas na escola. Mas eu me sinto super mal por que eu sei que aquela comida estav fazendo um agrande diferenca na vida deles. mas talvez no futuro a gente consiga retomar essa parte do nosso projeto.

As boas noticias sao que no momento nos temos ETB 13, 132 em caixa, e adicionando as doacoes mensais que sao constantes (ETB 2220), NOS VAMOS CONSEGUIR ATINGIR O NOSSO OBJETIVO INICIAL QUE E DE ALIMENTAR AS CRIANCAS POR UM ANO ESCOLAR INTEIRINHO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eu estou super feliz e gostaria de dizer a cada um de voces; OBRIGADA OBRIGADA OBRIGADA !!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah ! Isso inclui jantar pro Marcus por que ele nao tem uma familia. Tambem ETB 120 po rmes pra Almas, que e a cozinheira da escola e ajuda todos nos com muito amor. Ela manda uma lancheira de jantar pro Marcus todo dia e nao mede esforcos pra proteger as nossas criancas.

ICS, a escola que o Marc trabalha, concordou em incluir 4 das nossas criancas numa peca teatral. A minha maior surpresa e a membere. Eu acho que ela nao e somente talentosa pra pintura mas tambem como atora hahahaha Voces todos conhecem a estoria da Membere e a uma grande alegria adicionar alguma coisa boa na vida dela. Ela vaipas, 10% da doacao do grupo de yoga por que ele sescolheram a pintura dela.

Arwa, querida, eu ainda tenho o dinheiro de Natal do Elyas e eu e a genete finalmente deicidimos que nos vamos ocmprar roupas pra ele. Eu andei olhando bicicletas mas todo mundo foi contra por que falaram que iam acabar roubando. Entao, amanha, amanha de certeza eu vou comprar umas roupinhas lindas pra ele e tambem pra Membere. Eu adoro fazer comprinhas pra eles hehe

Nos vamos conseguir esse ano. deus os abencoe e vos de em dobro, triplo o que voces doaram pras nossas criancas.

Muitos beijos
