The hygiene kits were a hit!

The day our kids held their market, there were items available not only for the kids who attend the Vinh Quang school, but for their family members as well. I walked up and saw this mob of people standing around a table and upon closer look saw that they were picking out hygiene kits. A hygiene kits consists of 2 tooth brushes, 2 tubes of toothpaste, bar of soap, comb, brush, floss, hand towel, and various other toiletry items all fitting into a gallon-sized ziplock baggie. Many of our group members brought these kits, and An Chi's class made a collective contribution as well. I can say with great confidence, they were a HUGE hit! Thank you IWIA Daisy class members, you made their day.



In addition, An Chi's class wrote letters to their counterparts -- the first graders at the Vinh Quang school. They had bios of the kids and wrote personal and heartfelt letters and included photos of themselves. They also included a self addressed envelope and hopefully will get a letter back!
