One of the people I look forward to seeing again is Hanna Fanta. Many of you know her. She is the amazing founder of Children's Heaven. An organization designed to help pre-teen and teenaged girls be successful in school, help them to stay off the street, teach them about disease prevention and good health care, and promote self- esteem. It is an amazing organization and Hanna is wonderful.
Hanna has been to Denver where we have raised money through Ethiopian Orphan Relief to help her with funds to build a new home. Here is a photo of when she came.
The best blog posts about Children's Heaven are on my good friend Heidi's blog. I encourage you to read about Hanna and Children's Heaven here - especially the post about the Dumpster Girls. When we visit we look forward to meeting all the girls and finding out from Hanna how everything has been going with the new building space. I hope to have wonderful photos and stories of this when we return. These girls always need money for school uniforms. You can sponsor a girl through the website. She will send you letters and you are able to stay in touch with the child you are sponsoring. It is a wonderful organization.
