Saint Patrick's Fund Appeal 2010 (formerly Good Shepherd Fund)—13 Years of...
WHAT IS THE SAINT PATRICK'S FUND AND HOW DOES IT WORK?
For nearly 13 years Family & Life has organised an annual appeal to help people in dire poverty. This appeal was known as the Good Shepherd Fund. This Fund initially began in response to reports from Thailand of teenagers enslaved in prostitution who were forced to undergo abortions.
Today the Fund continues to provide financial assistance to children born into extreme conditions of poverty with a particular emphasis on rescuing children from the streets of Thailand and the Philippines. Assistance has also been provided to purchase important child vaccines in Central America; support for children at a school in Bethlehem; a pregnancy counselling service in Russia and the provision of materials for seminarians in Africa.
At the two main centres in Bangkok and Manila, Family & Life’s annual fund has provided for additional housing, a school extension, computer equipment, medical supplies and educational resources and support. Many children have been spared a life of extreme poverty and sexual exploitation and abuse as a result of the generosity of Family & Life supporters.
Family & Life is committed to continuing and expanding this important project. As part of our renewed effort in this area we have decided to rename the fund. Henceforth, this annual appeal will be known as the Saint Patrick's Fund. .
To help Family & Life, through its St Patrick's Fund (which in particular supports Sr Yanee's "Children's and Babies Shelter" in Phuket, Thailand), continue its campaign to rescue 100 more street children from forced prostitution and forced abortion, to house them, educate them, look after their health and welfare, and its continuiing support for those street children already rescued, please DONATE: CLICK TO READ MORE.....
