So to all of our wonderful sponsors, and friends to Pearl River!! This is why we do this!
Our goal is to prepare our precious children for the joy of a family!
To teach them how to love and trust!
We will not always have the chance to follow our children once they are placed. But, when we do it is such a blessing!

We are in desperate need for sponsors (ELEVEN!) So, please contact me if you are interested in providing just one child the chance to be loved!

Will You Give the Gift of Hope? 12 Sponsorships Needed!!

For $35.00 per month, $105 quarterly or $420 a year.. This gift gives one of our children the ability to live with a family. It gives them food, formula, clothing. But, most of all it gives them a foster family who can teach them to trust and love. How do I know this to be true....? Because today I am leaving on a plane to visit one of our precious babies. Do you remember "Lindsey"?
She was a Bamboo Baby for almost four years. She has now been home with her forever family for one almost 12 months. She is thriving... Why? Because with the help of her sponsors Lindsey was in foster care where she learned how to love and be loved. She learned how to hold hands, give kisses, hug her family, how to express herself, how to be a part of a family, how to bond. She was given the chance of a future, because of four families who said "yes!" So if you don't think your support will make a difference, please trust me when I say, it will! And, it does!

Here are the nine Bamboo Babies that need your help now!!!!

If you would like to join our group of Bamboo Baby Sponsors you can go directly to our donations tab here. Please email me too, and let me know that you have a specific child you would like to be matched with. I do my best to accommodate those requests! Your commitment is for one year, with the hope that you will renew! If your child is adopted during your sponsorship, you will be matched with a new child.

My goal is to be at 100% sponsorship again by the end of October! Will you please help me get there?


Blessings,

*I will be traveling until the 23rd. So, I will get back to all sponsor requests the week of the 24th.


Birthday Cuties!

Two of our precious Bamboo Babies celebrated birthdays in Zhanjiang yesterday, Ainsley and Jayden! Ainsley turned three and Jayden turned two. Our prayer is that you are matched with your forever families this year!

Introducing Our Newest Babies!

August was a fantastic month. Many of our Pearl River Babies met their forever families. We said farewell to: Heidi, Caitlin, Ciera, Zach and Liam. Two of our children were adopted domestically! And, two went to Spain, and one to the United States! This is why we do this, to prepare our precious children for their future! We are so happy when they are placed in loving homes!

September began with eight new Bamboo Babies! They are all at Changsha #1, and they are all precious! I have noted below the babies that need sponsors. If you are interested you can email me at diana@pearlriveroutreach.com. Or, you can go directly to our Changsha donations tab and sign up for your annual sponsorship here. Please let us know the child you would like to sponsor and I will do my best to make that happen.
