Letter from Magda

I came home last night to a CI envelope. Inside was a letter from Magda. I have posted it above for you. She asks for pictures of us so she can put them next to her bed. I am not sure if she understands that there are a group of us. We could do a collage picture for her if you are interested.

Hope you enjoy her letter as much as I did.

Magda Receives Her Gifts :-)

Shana sent a package to Magda. Here are the photos and what she wrote.

Here is Magda from Guatamila with her first gifts from me. A grop of CI sponsors Magda. She looks happy and will need to grow into a couple of items. :-)

Magda's First Letter

Just before leaving for work today the mailman brought the first letter from Magda! I had to hurry up and scan it so that I could share it with all of you. I am sorry for the bleed through on the picture but I wanted you to be able to see what she drew on the back.

In the salutation, Magda got it right, she used sponsors but the translator didn't. :-)

Hope you enjoy reading her first words to us.

More About Magda

You have to love that picture, that smile in almost infectus, but who is Magda?

Magda is the second child sponsored by a group of people who are members of the Children International Sponsors list serve, and even a couple of people who are interested in being part of the project.

Magda is 9 years old. She lives in a house constructed of split cane with a metal roof and a dirt floor. She is the youngest of 5 children. Her father is a day worker who earns about $115 a month. Her mother is a homemaker.

Magda is able to attend school. She says her favorite subject is Grammar. (That is my favorite too :-) ).

It is my hope that our little group will be able to make some wonderful changes in her life.
