Dear Friends,
Another period of being home has come and is almost gone as we get ready to depart on another trip to Cambodia and Nepal on November 12. This past year saw many students supported by K.I.D.S. graduating from various levels of schooling. Some moving on after post-secondary education or vocational training programs, finding employment, and improving their lives while already pitching in helping younger siblings and family.
K.I.D.S. home for girls and the preschool/kindergarten are both doing their intended purpose of sheltering, protecting and educating poor and vulnerable children. The coming months will be busy putting all of your donations, positive intentions and good will to work.
The resources you provide will bring housing, hygiene and mothers and children will be feeling better after seeing healthcare workers funded by your contributions.
Some 10,000 students arrive daily at school, thirsty after a long walk or bike ride and they will be able to quench their thirst at school water projects thanks to you. We are working and adding a couple more water projects this upcoming trip.

We have been very busy this fall with our fundraiser which was held on the 26th of October. For those of you who were there, we are honoured and humbled by your continuous support and the amazing energy and feel you bring to the event.
Bicycles have already been purchased from the proceeds of the event and we are hoping to buy many more so children can attend school.
As well workers have broken ground for the four new classrooms at an overcrowded school in a very poor rural area.
As we hold our hands up to wave goodbye, the hand up you give to so many has, is and will continue to change lives.... THANK YOU!
Until next time,
Rick and Adrianne
