| Sending Gifts to Your Sponsored
Individual |
It was exceptionally kind of
many sponsors to send a special gift for your sponsored
individual at Christmas, Easter, birthdays, or simply
for family support. We are deeply grateful for your
generosity. Dr. Geetha, myself, and our dedicated
FCN staff in India tried our best to purchase gifts
which are needed by your sponsored individual. We
have been very happy to provide this service through
December of 2005. It has been our pleasure to respond
to these gifts with personal notes, thank you letters,
and photos from your sponsored individual to their
sponsors.

FCN currently sponsors over
eleven hundred through our sponsorship program. Sponsorship
is an incredible blessing for each of the children,
college students and seniors as well as their families.
Unfortunately, while several of them were benefiting
from your generous “extra” gifts, many
did not receive any additional gifts during the year.
Since the gifts you have provided to your sponsored
individual went directly to that individual, not every
person received the same amount for a gift. As you
can imagine, this caused an inequitable situation
as well as practical difficulties in distributing
the gifts. In addition, we also care for many children
and seniors who do not yet enjoy the benefit of having
a sponsor. Therefore, some of the sponsored individuals
received much while others received little or nothing
extra.

In order to address this situation,
we are humbly requesting that all sponsors provide
a gift of $ 20 to $ 50 or more which will be directed
to a GIFT FUND. In the month of November of every
year, all our sponsored individuals will receive Christmas
gifts. Having the ability to do this will alleviate
many difficulties for us. We appreciate your understanding
and look forward to your continued support.

You are welcome to
send your donation for Gift Fund throughout the year.
This will allow us to purchase and distribute
the gifts to the sponsored individuals in a timely
manner. Since our sponsored individuals are spread
out over quite a large geographical area, we require
sufficient time to reach them all.

| We
deeply appreciate your understanding in our efforts
to better serve our needy through FCN. Our hearts are
filled with much gratitude for your continued support
and generosity. Please know that we and those you sponsor
pray for you daily. |
