Update on Sarah

Tuesday, January 10, 2006

I received a call this afternoon from Riel Andaluz c/o Save the Children - Philippines chapter. She explained to me they were able to read our invitation for Sarah last Christmas today only due to their Holiday break and that Randy, being the sponsor, should fill out Sponsor Visit Application form. I also received a copy of her email to Randy:

"We received the letter you had intended for Sarah inviting her and her family last Christmas. We regret that we have only received the letter today and thus were not able to arrange your meeting with your sponsored child and her family. After reading the letter, I immediately contacted Laila and learned more about your plan. As may have mentioned to you by Laila, due to the recent holiday, we were not able to pick up mails from our PO Box."

Riel visited this blog and have read my 'LUNCH WITH THE ORPHANS' entry. I told her since we didn't meet Sarah Alea on December 25th, we decided to treat other kids instead. Anyway, after filling out a Sponsor Visit Application form, we might be able to meet Ma. Sarah Estrada Alea in person soon.

butterfly Let me know you were here, your thoughts are welcome!

Form was mailed this morning. This should be great.

Great! Please keep me posted.

I am going to fill out the form now.

Well, thanks to the generosity of our fellow BlogShares players and of course, greater thanks to you for making this possible.

Fill out the Sponsor Visit Application form soon so that they can schedule Sarah. It will be perfect to meet her in person between April (after the Holy Week) and May, as she will have summer vacation that time.

Awesome, I figured that may have been what happened. I am sure she will have a wonderful time.
