 +Hi everyone
 +
 +Today I wanted to talk about the SOS Childrens Villages.
 +
 +I do not know if you are aware but in China there are SOS Childrens Villages in Tianjin, Yantai, Qiqihar, Nanchang, Chengdu, Kaifeng, Putian, Urumqi og Lhasa. 
 +
 +In the Chinese SOS Childrens villages around 1000 children are housed in around 134 family houses.
 +
 +Dedicated staff and volunteers help the children live as normal a life as possible, they help them getting an education and teach them how to become independent individuals.
 +
 +The SOS Childrens villages are funded by donors, who sponsor either a child or the village - My wife and me choose I think around two years ago to support a child in the Tianjin SOS Childrens Village.
 +
 +We have been very glad to get progress reports about our sponsor child and feel deeply satisfied by the knowledge that we in this way can help someone so far away.
 +
 +I hope you will consider becoming a sponsor also.
 +
 +You can visit the SOS village homepage here: http://www.sos-childrensvillages.org
 +
 +Let me know your plans - have a nice day all...
