Panti Asuhan Sinar Kasih (PASK), the orphanage that the
Sumba Youth Initiative (SYI) supports, cares for 40 children. PASK
provides food, shelter, education, and love for these amazing kids in hopes
that they will mature into thoughtful, productive citizens. As an independent
orphanage, PASK does not receive any assistance from religious organizations in
Sumba and only minimal government support.
SYI has been
assisting PASK for the past 3 years. In that time, we have been able to build a
well and new bathrooms, purchase new school uniforms, assist with school fees, and purchase some small livestock. Currently, SYI is funding the
construction of a second dormitory for PASK. This dormitory will provide much
needed shelter for the children and help give each child their own bed.
This holiday season
why not make a difference in the lives of these orphans in honor of your loved
ones. Choose one of the gifts listed below and SYI will
send your intended recipient a holiday card explaining the wonderful gift that
has been made in their honor.
Please
send us your written request by mailing the form below, or
email it to us. Payment must be received
by December 15 to ensure ample time for mailing out an honor card to your gift
recipient. SYI accepts cash, checks, or paypal.
Happy
Holidays from SYI!
