Educational & Developmental Needs 2009 and 2010 
[Link to 2009]

From birth through the teenage years, the provision of age-appropriate developmental and educational tools is crucial to an orphan's future success.  Hope's Heart supports endeavors to provide books, school tuitions,  and toys to promote stimulation, learning and growth for orphans of all ages.  When special needs orphans are unable to attend public school, the creation of a school within the orphanage is a creative solution to bring the opportunity of development in a classroom setting to them.

2010 Educational & Developmental Projects


More School Sponsorship Renewals

March 2010-
Providing the opportunity for these children to spend a portion of their day in school is an investment with a huge return.  We're pleased this month to be able to renew education sponsorships for Lee, Teddy, Parker and Gracie.   Our gratitude is extended to the donors who help support these special children.  Thank you!

     



Specialized Schooling Renewal

March 2010- Alaina is in her third year of school sponsorship, and what a joy it is to watch her grow and develop.  Alaina's sponsorship is unique in a couple ways.  One, all of our school sponsored kids are much younger; and two, Alaina's sponsorship allows here the opportunity to attend a specialize school for the deaf.  What a perfect match since Alaina has hearing loss.  She works hard in her studies and has a talent for drawing.  We are honored to help enrich her life and give Alaina the tools for a brighter future.







 
Four Education Renewals

February 2010-
It is our pleasure to renew education sponsorships for Ben, Alice, James and Ellie to attend public school.  James is in his fourth year of sponsorship, and Ellie in her third. 

     



Four New School Sponsorships

January 2010-

Happy To Go To School

Ten New Pre-schoolers

January 2009- 
We extend heartfelt gratitude to the supporters of the ministry who sponsored ten little boys and girls to attend preschool.  The sponsorship added a new classroom of  kids to our existing orphanage school and facilitates the development of the two-year-olds who are filling the room with activity.  Join us in welcoming Kaden, Chase, Alli, Breana, Annabelle, Vicky, Grant, Tanner, Tori and Emily.
