Story

This morning I was out for my morning cycle , on the way up the rd I passed an elderly woman and a young girl , as I approached I noticed the girl had a bad disfigurement, I was going to cycle on but I turned around and caught them, although not good english I asked them to come and visit Ten Foundations, they arrived a bit later , Darwina is 13 , she finished grade 1 and hasn't been to school since , not a good future ahead in the Philippines for a girl like Darwina, we have been put in contact with a clinic in Manila who can possibly help , but I will get a cost and see what we can do through a justgiving appeal . How wonderful it would be to see Darwina smile and going to school
