Please Welcome Evita to the Linux Tutorial family
|
After the devastation in Indonesia from the tsunami in December 2004, the earthquake in the summer of 2006 and the floods shortly thereafter, I decided to sponsor a child with the Christian Children's Fund. Despite the name, children are welcomed into the programs regardless of religous beliefs. The child I selected was Nur Khayati, who lives in Central Java, close to the epicenter of the 2006 earthquake. Fortunately for Nur, the program in her community has grown to the point where is is now self sufficient. Sadly, that means CCF is no longer sponsoring the project. The good thing is that we now have the opportunity to help a new child: Evita.
Like Nur, Evita has known only poverty in her young life. She lives with her parents and two siblings in a simple house in Central Java. Her father is a farm laborer, but his income is very irregular laborer, and the family's annual income is around US$ 105. Evita is studying in the primary school and her favorite subject is the Indonesian Language.
It would be wonderful if you, too, could also help out by making a
donation.
