Hi,

We're the Heng kids! Moving back to Southeast Asia next summer, we wanted to make a difference for that part of the world. Hence, Gospel for Asia caught our attention.

This is our second campaign. Since we were able to reach our first goal, we have raised our expectations with a higher goal and now want to make a family smile too.

Please visit our first campaign at https://www.mygfa.org/makeasmile/

Families are important and we believe in helping families thrive. When a family in need receives a water buffalo, their situation will change. Water buffaloes are able to survive in extreme weather, making them sustainable and able to live for a long time. They can provide milk, plow fields and pull carts of goods which would greatly benefit a family.

A water buffalo can help to increase a family's income. With the money, kids can go to school, and medical bills can be paid. Also, water buffaloes can produce more buffaloes, thus helping more families.

Our family moved several times this year and we found that we had too much stuff. We realized that our treasure was not in these things, but in the people we love. So, this Christmas we are asking - instead of the cards, gifts or presents that we would otherwise receive, please consider donating to this cause.

We know we are greatly loved by our family and friends, so it would make us very happy if a contribution is put to this cause. No amount is too small to make a difference - every little bit adds up to a lot! Please join us this Christmas to support families in need, change their situation and give them have a better life.

By the way, my sisters love water buffaloes. :-) Thank you for making a family (and us) smile. God bless you and Merry Christmas!

Bethan, Lauren, Keane & Megan

About Water Buffalo

Water Buffalo are tough. These robust animals can easily haul a cart or plow a field, and they also supply milk. Purchasing a water buffalo may even help a poor mother feed her children and send them to school. Watch the video to learn more.
