For the past four years,
Family Care Indonesia volunteers have made regular visits to West Flores Island to help the village people there. In June, project coordinator, Frances, along with 8
FCI youth volunteers returned again to Flores.
This time they visited 5 villages, 9 schools and several institutions including a facility for handicapped and blind children in the 2 weeks they were there.
FCI volunteers personally distributed clothing, school supplies, and food and interacted with the villagers. They also organized a program of fun activities and games for the children in the villages visited.
Our goal in visiting these distant islands is to encourage and motivate the children and young people living there to overcome the many difficulties they face in life and gain determination to reach their goals and make their dreams possible.
We are very grateful for each of our donors in Jakarta and Surabaya who made it possible to take another giant step forward in realizing this goal.
