My flatmate was a gift from God 2 years ago

She is the first person who has given me real faith in my goal. I can really see myself acomplishing it.
However, it’s going to be too difficult to take on both charities, so I think, I will make this one my primary.

Whatever you believe you will achieve



I thought I had it planned... 3 years ago

I mean, I’ve got a book that I collect all my ideas in, and I do realise that this’ll take alot of money, but children are the future right?

Life is a gift, and everyone should be valued.

I’ll add more when I get more research…



Step three... 3 years ago

Introduce preschool.

Education is so scarce, and it really upset me on one trip to China that there are so many scams over there due to the lack of government regulation.
I saw a baby with a head that was at least 10” big. His forehead had swelled up so much, at the expense of his body.
I was told that this child was probably the age of 2 and would eventually die.
This was because of a milk scam, where a company produced a cheap economy milk powder which had no nutritional value, it was basically cloudy water. But it was cheap and people are poor.

I think that preschool will prepare the children’s minds for school, and then increase awareness within the orphange when they’re in school by teaching it in the orphanage.



Step two... 3 years ago

I’d like to increase training for staff that look after the children.
Many of these orphanages are full of young babies, and there aren’t enough nurses.
Babies are at an important stage of their development, with new theories every day about feeding our children certain types of food will make them more intelligent, etc.
We should concentrate on the basics first.



Step one... 3 years ago

I mean orphanages in less developed countries.
It’s really from what I’ve seen in China and the photos that my teacher showed me from Vietnam from when she adopted.

But first, I would like to refurbish the buildings making them more child friendly in an environment that would be safe for them to play and develope those early skills.

Many orphanages never let the children play due to lack of space and staff.

Playing developes the childs coordination, and besides, children should play!
