Child Welfare
sharing love and giving hope
AIRLINE
AMBASSADORS visited
695 orphanages, schools,
handicapped facilities,
hospitals and remote communities
in 2005 delivering
$588,000 aid supporting
children’s welfare.
We
provided shoes, clothing,
toys, arts and sports
equipment and in many
cases hosted a party where
aid was given as part of
the celebration. We found
that many of the children
had never before received
a present, and with shining faces received their first pair of shoes, a soccer
ball or musical instrument.
Airline Ambassadors painted an orphanage
and planted a garden with children in GUATEMALA, gave a pool party
for orphans in El Salvador, and conducted similar activities for children in
BOLIVIA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC, INDIA, LEBANON and the
UKRAINE. Child welfare was addressed on nearly every mission this
year.
Additionally, AAI helped to establish long term relationships between
youth through our Cards for Kids Program. Children in various countries
were connected with their counterparts in the US at 24 different US
schools.
