Hoa’s Family Look Forward with Hope!

Memorial service for Hoa
Dear Dwayne and Terese,

On December 26, 2010, Hoa and another man were fatally wounded by a landmine explosion while working together in a field.  Hoa’s family – his wife and two young children – are coping with their tragedy while trying to maintain other aspects of their life.  Hoa was the bread-winner of the family, and his death will bring significant financial hardship to them.

Your support, however, has made it possible for PeaceTrees to offer immediate assistance and cover the cost of Hoa’s funeral.  Additionally, the family will receive a cow to help alleviate some financial worry.

Thank you for your generosity. Your gift makes an immediate and significant impact in people’s lives!
