Start missing those days where we sent some greeting cards or letters to our friends by snail mail, where we picked those cards carefully by ourselves and wrote those messages with a sincere heart and corrected it again and again for the best sentences. Unfortunately, those real and touchable greeting cards are gradually replaced by the technology, where people simply type in messages and press the button 'send' or even worse just 'forward' message wrote by others.
But to my surprise the second day my dad passed me a letter. A letter by the World Vision Malaysia. FYI, i made some donations to the World Vision since i was in secondary school, so every year i will receive a letter for donation and child sponsorship.
World Vision, building a better world for children.
Feel the warmness of this festive season with this cute design at the back of the envelope!
In case you don't know, World Vision is an international Christian relief, development and advocacy organization dedicated to working with children, families and their communities worldwide to reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty. They serve all people regardless of religion, race, ethnicity or gender. World Vision helps the poor to help themselves by working with them to build sustainable futures for their children, families and communities.
I was always wanted to sponsor a child. But as a student, sponsoring a child is quite a burden for me (RM 780 per year for Asian countries and RM 960 per year for non-Asian countries), normally i will made some donations with my siblings, but together with 45+ course-mates we once sponsored a child during secondary school. Hopefully with this post, YOU can make a greater impact to the world by sponsoring a child or making some donations, especially during this festive season of Chinese New Year (with some money from your Angpau :D)!
This festival is a time of family reunions and the sharing of good things with one another. In the same spirit of sharing during this Chinese New Year, you too can bring joy and hope to families in need, by sponsoring a child or sharing about the Child Sponsorship Programme with your friends and families.
