Dear Sponser



Drew still goes to the CCCD school 2 mornings a week for science class. Today, Drew asked me what "sponsor" means. Our school runs due to child sponsorship and so sponsors are a common aspect of conversations around school. So, when Drew started asking what sponsor meant, I started putting two and two together. Upon further questioning, we discovered that his teacher had been talking about sponsors in his class and that the kids were supposed to write letters to their sponsors. When we asked him what sponsor meant, he said that his teacher explained to him, "the white people that come down from America." So, the idea got stuck in his head that he wanted to write to his sponsor and today he created the above picture. We wouldnt know who to send it to except that it seems appropriate enough to send it to all of you as we appreciate your support so much. From Drew and all of us, Thank you for "sponsoring" our family.
