Philippines: Mission Accomplished

The SCAW travelling team and the SCAW Core Committee (Kiwanis) team. From Philippines 2010

Today the Philippines team had the pleasure of distributing the final 400 bedkits to needy children. Now 6,000 kids have the materials to ensure "the comfort of a good night's sleep." The kids and their parents are most grateful for their "Gift of Love" from Canada.

The Kiwanis team in Manila carried out their part of the distributions without the leadership of Dr. Juan Torres who had emergency surgery on the second day of the schedule. They are so committed to the goals of meeting the needs of children that they have every detail covered. It is a family affair with husbands, wives, and teen-agers all working to accomplish the tasks.

Thanks to all who supported the team with blog messages and e-mails of encouragement. We will be home soon to share our stories and photos.
