He is a student of Da Nang College of Economics and Planning.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Just when Cam finished his 12th grade, his mother was discovered to have bone cancer at last period, with myasthenia and tympanites. His father is a retired worker, without working capacity. In such a dire straight, Cam had to drop school because the family cannot afford it, and also because his Mom needs him by her side. His mother has been longing for her death for two years now in a hope to remove the burden for her husband and child, but she is still alive, with worse illness. In such situation, his Mom has tried her best to advise Cam to leave her behind with Dad and continue his study. She even said that if Cam could finish with his study, she would still be satisfied in the other world. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Obeying his Mom, Cam took the university competition. When he received the approval from the university, the family atmosphere sank into confusion over what to do next with his future. Being introduced by the Charity Board of the Buddhist&#8217;s Association of Quang Tri Province, he managed to find the way to my house in Hue. Cam took the train to Hue and rode to my house on a terribly worn-out bike. Tied in the port-baggage were a small tin saucepan, just as big as three fists, and little spice taken from the kitchen of his family in Quang Tri. Cam took out a pack of peppercorn, saying &#8220;my mother would like to give you&#8230;&#8221;</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">I encouraged Cam to focus on his study. As an encouragement, on behalf of nun Phuc Hai, I gave him a scholarship for the new school-year. I told Cam many things to help him feel determined at studying.&nbsp; Cam lowered his head, held his forehead in the arms and tried to hold back his tears. Thinking that he was getting ill, I asked &#8220;how are you? What&#8217;s the pain?&#8221; Cam replied &#8220;I am OK, Miss. Never before did anyone tell me such things as you do, therefore I am so moved and just cannot hold back my tears&#8221;. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Since then I have considered Cam as my &#8220;spiritual&#8221; son. Whenever his Mom was in critical situation, Cam would quit classes and hurry home from Da Nang, dropping by my home in Hue for help. Two of us would ride on my time-worn motorbike brand Wave@ to different treatment centers so that I could ask for help for Cam and his mother. Finally Cam&#8217;s mother passed away. To please her as she had advised, Cam devoted his best efforts to studying. He went through his academic years with his university&#8217;s scholarship for excellent students and regular funding from relatives of nun Phuc Hai.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Last year, Cam was struck with a serious illness. He came to an internet café and called me through yahoo messenger: &#8220;Miss Dieu Lien, I am ill, I worry so much..&#8221; After &#8220;chatting&#8221; with him to understand his situtation, I asked one of my sisters who used to work for Da Nang Hospital to help find a doctor for him. Being a polite, patient and kind-hearted person, Cam has won the heart of my sisters, who then shared the cost for Cam&#8217;s treatment. Besides, Miss Dieu Luong is also ready to contribute to his treatment cost. Now Cam has had a broad family with compassions from those he has never met. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">There is something in Cam that makes it hard for me to forget. Cam is a strongly-built youth, with strength and swiftness of a son; and at the same time, I find in him traits of a daughter lingering around her Mom to care for family affairs. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">During the time I stay in Vietnam, he usually phones and shares with me his happiness and sadness and ask for my advice. Whenever we have a chance to meet, he weeps and says &#8220;I am so happy to meet you&#8230;&#8221;</span></p> </td> </tr> </table> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="816"> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="114" height="35"><img src="../assets/images/autogen/clearpixel.gif" width="114" height="1" border="0" alt=""></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td height="2"></td> <td width="702"><img id="Line16" height="2" width="702" src="../assets/images/autogen/a_ArrowLine_7.gif" border="0"></td> </tr> </table> <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="820"> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="357"> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="115" height="8"><img src="../assets/images/autogen/clearpixel.gif" width="115" height="1" border="0" alt=""></td> <td width="1"><img src="../assets/images/autogen/clearpixel.gif" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt=""></td> <td></td> <td width="1"><img src="../assets/images/autogen/clearpixel.gif" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td colspan="2" height="374"></td> <td width="240"><img id="Picture255" height="374" width="240" src="../assets/images/Hoan_Thi_Thuy_web.jpg" border="0"></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td colspan="4" height="17"></td> </tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td></td> <td colspan="3" width="242" class="TextObject"> <p style="text-align: center; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Sans-serif;">Hoàng ThË Thçy</span></p> </td> </tr> </table> </td> <td> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" width="463"> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td width="7" height="13"><img src="../assets/images/autogen/clearpixel.gif" width="7" height="1" border="0" alt=""></td> <td width="456"><img src="../assets/images/autogen/clearpixel.gif" width="456" height="1" border="0" alt=""></td> </tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td></td> <td width="456" class="TextObject"> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Trieu Van, 10 September 2005</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Application for scholarship grant</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">I am Hoang Thi Thuy, born on 14 August 1987.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">My family and I live in Vinh Hoa village, Trieu Van commune, Trieu Phong district, Quang Tri province.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">I am the second daughter of a family of 7 children.

This is extremely meaningful to me, especially when it came at the beginning of my new school-year.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Esteemed benefactor,</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">At present, my family faces numerous difficulties. Both my parents are farmers, but they are now old and weak. My father has a spiral disease that causes him a lot of difficulties in moving. My mother is old and weak now, but she still has to try to work hard to earn enough for our food and schooling. I have three siblings, one of whom is in high school; the other two in secondary school. Since my family is too poor, we cannot afford enough studying equipments, books or notebooks, and we therefore have to borrow them from our friends. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">As for me, besides my study, I also work as a private tutor to earn for my daily necessities, because I understand that my parents can no longer afford that expenditure. Everyday I cycle over 10 kilometers to my tutee&#8217;s house. The payment is not much; however, without it I could not know what else I can do to manage these difficult times. To a poor student living away from home, hunger to me is expectably frequent.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Esteemed benefactor, </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">I am profoundly grateful to you for your caring and enabling assistance, which helps me partly overcome the immediate challenges and shortages. It will give me and my siblings notebooks, textbooks and other studying equipment for our new school-year. It is such a great joy to us. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">I would like to promise you that I will try to study well and become a useful person, so as to live up to the expectations of my family as well as your caring assistance.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">I wish my esteemed benefactor great health, happiness and inexhaustible efforts in helping people in difficulties like me. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Respectfully, </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 0px;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Le Thi Minh Trang</span></p> </td> <td colspan="3"></td> </tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td colspan="10" height="86"></td> </tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td height="2"></td> <td colspan="8" width="702"><img id="Line12" height="2" width="702" src="../assets/images/autogen/a_ArrowLine_7.gif" border="0"></td> <td></td> </tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td colspan="10" height="16"></td> </tr> <tr valign="top" align="left"> <td colspan="5"></td> <td colspan="2" width="692" class="TextObject"> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Quang Tri, 9 August (lunar calendar), 2006</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Letter of gratitude,</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">To: Benefactor ALAN BUI</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Mr. ALAN BUI</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">I am Nguyen Thi Thu Ha, </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Grade 71, THANH CO Secondary School</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">I am currently living in Phuong Ngan, Trieu Long, Trieu Phong, Quang Tri. <br>I am writing to you to express my gratitude to you and your family. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: 'Century Gothic', Arial, Helvetica, Geneva, Sans-serif;">Mr, I am now 12 years old.
