Our Mission
Blessing Hands Inc. works to help disadvantaged students in China, Thailand, Liberia, Myanmar, Cambodia, Tanzania, and the Philippines to reach their full potential. We help those who help themselves and others. Our core belief is giving is a blessing, and we seek to teach by example that every person can be a blessing hand to others. We want to foster international friendships through our sponsorship programs and encourage Western volunteers to interact with our target communities and students.
What We Aim to Solve
In 2010, there were an estimated 9 million children living in poverty in China. Many of our students are left-behind children whose migrant parents cannot get education or health benefits for their children in the cities due to the government’s hukou system. 61 million children are left behind with relatives to attend free public schools. We serve functional orphans who do not qualify for government help or students who have some kind of personal/familial disability/ handicap. Most are female, the less preferred gender.
In Myanmar, we are bringing small individual solar systems to schools and providing school supplies to students who come with few resources to the school. The closest city is Matupi which is a 3-day walk. These villages are linked by language, kinship, and Christianity. There is a network of church leaders, teachers from a local college, and village elders who are willing to carry out assistance to their village schools. These students and their villages need help.
In Thailand, migrant families seek work across the border and this leaves children vulnerable and without access to good education. We partner with a school in En Hui to ensure all children have access to education.
In Philippines, we partner with a school to ensure students nearby living in slums will have an opportunity to attend a good school.
In Liberia, we partner with a rural school to ensure education remains available in this remote farming area.
In Tanzania, we sponsor students who must board to recieve education due to the remoteness of their families homes. We primarily work with Maasai students from the Loliondo area. We also encouraged the development of a local school in Mtu Wa Mbu Village to make sure education is available for maasai communities in this area.
Cambodia, is a new connection with students who are identified as great financial need in partnership with a Non-Profit known to our founder Betty Cutts.
7 Countries; over 250 students are impacted yearly by donations given through Blessing Hands.
