Hi,

We're the Heng kids! This Christmas we want to make a child smile. 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.

We are saddened by the plight of kids (our ages, can you imagine?!) in India, on the streets, facing dangerous circumstances, not having the love, safety, hope or future that we can have - it breaks our hearts. We hope we can give them something of what we have -the opportunity to grow up in a safe and loving environment.

Our family moved several times this year and we found 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 children from the streets, change their situation and give them have a better life.

If we are able to reach our goal, we also want to provide a gift of a water buffalo too. Thank you for making a child (and us) smile. God bless you!

Bethan, Lauren, Keane & Megan

We've met our goal! Please view our other campaign at https://www.mygfa.org/makeafamilysmile/

Street Children

Give a safe haven for vulnerable children

Many cities in developing nations are rife with children who live alone on the streets. These children are vulnerable to kidnappers who sell them into bonded labor and the sex trade. Those who avoid kidnappers fall into gangs, drugs, and alcoholism. They know only distrust and pain; every day is a struggle to survive.

Your donation supports GFA's ministry to street children. Street children homes provide the children with shelter, education, and food, as well as a message of Christ’s love.

You can change these little lives forever.

I hope you can buy more than one water buffalo! (that made me think of a Veggie Tales song, by the way. Now I'll be singing "Everybody's got a water buffalo" all night! ;-)
