“姐姐,你知道吗…其实我们很饱了,但是我们还在慢慢吃,因为我们不知道还要等多久才可以再吃烧烤。”
This was something a 12-year-old shared with us yesterday during a BBQ dinner with the children at 善德儿童福利之家 - Shan De JB. It stayed with us. A 16-year-old also came up to quietly say thank you—for remembering what they like and for preparing something so special for them.
From mini cheese sausages, Thai pork skewers, yakitori sticks, otah, chilli fish, mid-joint wings, mussels and a variety of side dishes… to simple sweet potatoes and corn—these may seem like small things to many of us, but to the children, it meant so much. They were genuinely happy, ate to their hearts’ content, and ended the night with dessert, seaweed snacks, and toasted marshmallows.
Looking back at March, instead of sponsoring a full meal (as there were still some leftover supplies from CNY), we provided different breads and cakes for their breakfasts and suppers—and even added satay to one of the lunches. The March babies also got to celebrate their birthdays together, which was a simple but joyful moment.
We’re really grateful for the steady support from our family and friends. From time to time, your kindness goes beyond meals—helping with school supplies, clothes, and other daily needs. These gestures may seem small, but they truly make a difference. Thank you for continuing to remember the children and for walking this journey with us.
