This is my husband Casey, with Art, Nok and Sai, on our 2009 visit to Khon Kaen, Thailand. The children were eager to have us read and re-read a very limited selection of books.

Portion for Orphans is kicking off fall fundraising for a number of projects at Mercy International Children’s Villages in Thailand. We would like to fund a library at an orphanage for the 39 children in Khon Kaen, Thailand. The total cost of this project is $4,000. Upon completion of the library, funds will be used to purchase equipment for an agricultural project at the newest center in Phrae, Thailand. This project will enable the staff to grow rice, vegetables and fruit trees, not only for the children, but also to sell as a means of creating income for other needs. PFO also helps to provide meals, school fees and Bibles for these children.

For more information, to make a donation and to subscribe to periodic email updates, please visit www.portionfororphans.org As always, 100% of donations directly benefit the children unless you designate a portion to administrative expenses. Please help us spread the word.

Mercy International Phrae

In August 2008, PFO raised funds to furnish one of the homes at Mercy International Children's Village in Phrae, Thailand. You all saw pictures of the empty home, of the home with all of the items you funded, and now... of children using all of those items! I thank each of you for your support of all of PFO's projects, not all of them can be seen as visibly as this one, but they are all life changing for the children we serve.

See www.portionfororphans.org for more information or to make a donation. As always, 100% benefits the children!
