Friends of child protection

By on June 30, 2009

Thank you so much to all of you who entered our Friends of Child Protection 2009 Essay Contest. We applaud you for making the commitment to help children in need in South Africa. You have done a great thing by giving up your time and donating your money to children you do not know. This will make a big difference to them – to know that there are people out there who care for them.

 

Congratulations to the following winners of the essay question, “Why is it important to help a child in need?” The essays written by the first place winners will be published in the September and October issues of Tokyo Families. Please stay tuned!
