When you donate to our Annual Fund, you give us the means to meet our children's unforeseen needs as they arise.
Recently, Travis Shepherd, the father of three of our sponsored children, was laid off. He is working hard to find new employment, but jobs are scarce in his rural Appalachian county. Fortunately, we were able to send money from our Annual Fund to help provide food for the Shepherd family. The sponsor of one of the Shepherd children also contributed $100, and now this family will have sufficient food for the summer.
Here, the Shepherd family stands next to the first shipment of food, which the girls' project volunteer delivered in her truck:
