AND the TOTALS are IN !

The Mark & Trina Ramsey Foundation expresses both gratitude & excitement while sharing the preliminary totals of what has been accomplished since our inception in July of 2016! We started off desiring to “Fulfill an Ocean of Needs, One Drop at a Time.” Together with our many generous donors, we’ve had the privilege of contributing many “drops” into that ocean! Thus far, we’ve been able to facilitate the following approaches to “giving back”:

In CAMBODIA:

· 100 Water Wells

· 350 Uniform Packs (packs include backpack, supplies & 2 uniforms per child)

· 350 Sandals for children without shoes

· 368 Mosquito Nets (to protect against Malaria)

Further, in addition to supporting the above “formal programs,” we’ve made personal contributions to smaller initiatives we’re exploring, as follows:

In CAMBODIA:

· Sustainability Program (1 “Store” for handicapped woman, 1 Bike for “Mobile Noodle Business”)

· Bikes – 2 for special needs (note: bikes will be rolled out formally in 2018 as school incentive program)

· 100+ Medical Aid Kits (for families participating in DLS Dental clinic)

· Health/Wellness Program (medical transport/expenses, special nutrition needs for handicapped child)

· Truck (to facilitate construction, deliveries, work in remote villages)

While we’re extremely proud of what’s been accomplished over the past ~1.5 years, the list of additional ways to provide assistance grows as we expand our awareness & uncover more & more unmet needs of these villagers & their extended families.

As 2017 comes to a close and you find yourself making final assessments for your remaining tax-deductible donations, we ask that you consider joining us in our passionate desire to address life-sustaining needs, such as providing water & preventing disease or altering the lives of children to end a cycle of poverty through education.
