   What is involved in sponsoring a child? How much is it? How do you pay the money – eg, pay pal, bank deposit etc.
   Would basic learn to read books in english help the orphanage? Is the sponsoring only for Tuka orphanage or also for Maria Goretti Orphanage? Do you give the sponsorer details on the child they are sponsoring eg, photo, age etc.
   I look forward to your reply,
   Lisa

   Hi Dewa
   I visit Bali usually twice a year and have for several years feeling like Bali is my second home. My husband and I would love to visit your orphange when we revisit. Do you have any information on adopting a child from your orphanage, my husband and I have been on IVF for some time and we have found out I am unable to have anymore children. I have two children from a previous marriage and they are now grown and left home. My husband and I have a lot of love to give another child, we are open to any age and would take siblings to keep them together. If you have any information could you contact us on the email address I have supplied. Thank you for your assistance. Michelle & Tony

     Dear Danka and David,
     Nice to hearing that you will be coming to Bali and would like to visit the children in the orphanage. The children will be very happy to meet you in the orphanage.
     Thank you For you donation. Honestly, we are really need money for support the children`s education. You can bring anything for the children but the children they like ice cream very much. It would be nice if you give them ice cream after lunch. Saturday 7th of September at 01:00 in the afternoon is the best time to come to visit the children. I can pick you up at your hotel and just tell me the hotel name, address , your name and room number. You can email me to dewa1977us@yahoo.com
     Thank you,
     Kind regards,
     Dewa

     The kids are gonna love you. The clothes from your kids will probably fit children a few years older than them. There are lots of teenagers there. In the photos you’ll see them wearing the same shirts weeks apart. It seems like it might be coincedence but it is usually that they have only one shirt that they really like or it came from a person they feel close to. Most people bring clothes for the youngest ones and the older ones are often overlooked. your kids will get to see their clothes in the photos many months from now. Let us know a couple options for days you’d like to visit and well make one work. Dewa can meet you at your hotel as the first trip there can be tough to find it. A tip for the event tomorrow.~~ Don’t hesitate to delegate. Have fun! C

     Hi Joanne! We keep bumpin’ into each other all over the place! I will pass this note on to Dewa as he is at the nearly every day. He will be able to let you know exactly what is needed. What I do know myself is that for the teenagers, “cool” t-shirts are like gold. Surf logos, bands, sports etc. especially from other countries are a status symbol around Bali and would make their day. At your 2nd hand clothing stall at your fundraiser tomorrow, you might want to have a look through it to see if you see shirts like this. Dewa should be in touch with you soon.
     Thanks again for all you are doing… -charlie
