| Writing to your sponsored individual |
Letter writing is a very important
aspect of our sponsorship program. Through personal letters
from the sponsored individual, the sponsor learns about
the individual's life in India. We encourage sponsors to
write to their sponsored individual if possible. Sponsors
should mail all the letters, greeting cards, photos and
stickers etc. to Name of the sponsored individual and the
ID number, Foundation for Children in Need, Porumamilla-516
193, Kadapa District, A.P., India. We will make sure your
mail arrives safely to your sponsored individual on time.
|
|
A reply to the letters received by
the sponsored individuals will be included in the Summer
or Christmas letter. We are not in a position to organize
more than two letters a year from the sponsored individuals
for several reasons.
|
|
When you receive letters from your
sponsored individual, you will notice a label in the upper
right hand corner of the letter. This is the project and
student ID which is instrumental for us in processing your
letters. This code allows us to direct your correspondence
to the appropriate project, thus insuring reception of your
letter faster.
