A Special Note from Gene McCain ...

We have continued to streamline delivery of support to our children, through arrangements made with the Phang Nga School Teachers and Superintendent, which will relieve the Orbortor office of ongoing oversight of our registered children, and place this task in the hands of the teachers.

We are now able to receive updates from each of the teachers who have some of our kids in their classes. This spreads the burden from the Orbortor and his small staff....to around 40 teachers. Each of these teachers see the children each day at school, so it is easy for them to track attendance for the children in their own class.

As of today's date, (November 30th, 2005) we have received 6,604,496. baht in donations. We have distributed 3,373,000 baht and have a balance of 3,231,496 baht.

Here are photos of some of our kids, now 10 months after the Tsunami.  Also some shots of some of the arts and craft industries that are now active at the Relief Camp.

Our Fourth Newsletter of the year is now posted, with a Fifth coming soon...

Bests Regards,
Gene McCain
