Blogging for baby CJ


Baby CJ is one month and one week old. He is born to Bunso Raine and her new husband Ian. I was Godfather of their wedding in Nov 2007. Raine is one of our amazing Directors in WSU in Philippines. She is Director of the Pangasinan chapter and also first manager of KIRL (Kuya International Rice Lending). This rice lending business is an amazing idea thought of by Raine's dad. Loaning rice to those who just need a bag of rice to feed their families for a month while some work is pending. Its helping to save families from a certain starvation. Unfortunately I only had a few hundred dollars to front capital for the initial rice and we have since run out of rice to loan. Raine also has a sari shop but is struggling for keeping stock. The father of CJ, Ian, has just started a construction job, but entry level construction in the Philippines pays very little. So this young couple is having a difficult time just keeping the baby in formula, diapers and vitamins.

Raine's monthly budget for baby CJ:
formula - 1876 peso
pampers - 860 peso
vitamins - 500 peso
total - 3236 peso/$79US per month

I am blogging here to find a sponsor for this young couple as they struggle to provide their new baby with the proper nutrition. This couple I personally know well, They are a wonderful, honest, God loving couple. They live in a squatters village in Pangasinan and are struggling to keep their baby with a full belly. They only need a sponsor for a year till baby CJ is on solid foods. Please message me if you feel you can help this couple. One time or regular contributors are welcome. Anything will help. Thanks,
Please give a dollar now for baby CJ!
