Christmas comes to Fengehun

The CRC's newest students live in Fengehun Village, just outside of Bo.  Because of the distance, the Fengehun students weren't able to attend the Christmas parties held at the CRC compound, so the CRC staff brought Christmas to them.

In the fall of 2017, the CRC expanded beyond Bo to add 20 first graders living in Fengehun Village to the roster.  Fengehun Village is one of the villages served by Mercy Hospital's Outreach program.  CRC staff travels with Mercy staff to do home and school visits for the children, while Mercy conducts prenatal and child nutrition clinics.  It takes about 45 minutes to reach Fengehun by car.  

Because of the distance, the 20 new students couldn't attend the Sponsor A Child Christmas parties held at the CRC, so the CRC staff brought a belated Christmas to them in January. Each child received a Luci solar light and treats to share with their families.
