Up to now John has helped 15 children from poor countries all over the world, ＄200 a month for each. The child does not receive the money in cash(现金). The money pays for the child’s school expenses, food, medical care and clothing. John receives a report each year on the child’s progress. They can write to each other, but usually the children do not speak English.

When John first heard about these children, he wanted to help them. “It was not anything special,” he said, “Until I had the chance to go to these countries and meet the children I was helping, I did not know any thing about the type of life they had.”

Once John went to meet a little girl in Africa. He said that the meeting was very exciting.

“When I met her, I felt very happy,” he said,“ I saw that the money was used for a very good plan. It brought me closer to the child in a way that giving money alone cannot.” “I want to do everything I can. I will go on helping those children in need.” he added.
