I have good news that the kids have received their school assistance for this month. I am happy to see them even if only a picture! I am relieved that they are in good shape, and so is their family. I always worry about how are they doing due to the pandemic situation. I hope both their school and family can survive and continue " a new normal" life. And this is my article about this news! July 2020 school assistance has been distributed!

If you follow my article, you would notice that this school assistance is given every month. This money comes from our own pocket, it means from our monthly salary. Last Monday night, Riche sent me a message that the kids had taken their money. She also gave me some pictures. Like I said in my article before, we give them additional money to support their family during the pandemic situation. I hope by giving support we could help them a little bit.
This month, Novi received IDR 175.000; for her school assistance and IDR 100.000; to support her family. Uun and Suci received IDR 125.000; each one of them and each received IDR 100.000; to support their family. If you are new to my article maybe you have a question to me, "why Novi received a different amount of the money", well Novi is in Secondary school while Uun and Suci both are still in Elementary school. That's why their school assistance is different.

Like you see, they came together at Riche's house like a month before. To be honest, I am happy to see them come together like this. As far I can see they will always support and help each other and become best friends! This is good news for me. Novi and Suci come together and Novi's sister accompanies them, while Uun comes with her brother. I am wondering, their house is quite far from Riche's house, and it is not safe for them to travel alone at evening and bring some money with them. But Riche told me that they always come with Novi's sister and Uun's brother.
During the pandemic, they use the money for their online school. Do not think that an online school in a small village is like in a big city. They are using Whatsapp application to send their school assignments. That's how an online school work in a small village. And Riche told me that the kids use these school assistance to pay their internet. I am glad that I can help them because the internet is not cheap for their family. Like I mentioned in my article before, their household family income is low. For example Novi, her parent income is IDR 200.000; a month. With this income do you think they could pay for the internet? That's why I am glad that we could give them school assistance.

Thank you Riche who always helps me to distribute these school assistance every month. And you have to know that we do not give a salary to Riche, so yes we work with heart and not because of money. Regardless of race, language, and religion, we are doing this to help these kids who want to go to school. We hope they could reach their dream and have a better life in the future. Stay strong kids!
