Messengers of Love - A 501c(3) organization - Tax ID #11-3730103 A member of Combined Federal Campaign - CFC Code 34043Help Vietnam's orphans: MoL provides physical, emotional and educational assistance to thousands of orphans each year, bringing them happiness, hope, security and achieving lasting improvements. 3.1% P,L,O Dear Friends, We are happy to announce that Messengers of Love received approval for inclusion in the 2012 Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) charity list for a second year. CFC code 34043. As a listed CFC member, Messengers of Love will be one of the charitable organizations available for automatic monthly payroll deductions for Federal employees. Employees can give by having a little deducted from each paycheck, or by making a one-time tax deductable gift. During the CFC sign-up campaign this fall, federal employees can list 34043 to give to Messengers of Love. Please help by spreading the words to your colleages, friends and families who are federal employees to give to Messengers of Love projects, providing hope for orphans and poor children through education, nutrition, and medical care. The donation will impact the lives of over 3700 thousands children in Vietnam (25 orphanages and poor children from 26 villages), some in India (2 orphanages), and Cambodia (2 orphanages) and many poor leper families. Please visit www.MessengersOfLove.com for more information about MoL programs and services. MoL goals this year:
a) Add an additional 1000 children and 300 lepers to our Christmas Gift and Meal service (bringing the total served to 5000) which includes providing daily necessities such as food, soap, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrush, and towel, but also includes a new outfit, a small toy, candies, and a nice sit down Christmas meal.
b) Add an additional 30 students to MoL’s current list of 185 students receiving scholarships. These are bright students who experience financial hardships and have to drop out of school in order to help out the family. $150 per year will give them the hope that they need to realize their dreams.
c) Purchase 15 laptops for MoL’s effort to empower and educate our children, through the “Computer Technology and English training” program in the summer of 2013. MoL’s youth group MOLY has already lined up 5 local high school graduates who signed up to travel to Vietnam to teach and share American culture at 3 different orphanages. They will fundraise on their own to pay for airline tickets, and MoL will provide housing and food for them during their stays. It will give our children an opportunity to open their hearts to humanity, and will provide the orphans with training that will offer them a brighter future.
d) Build 5 homes for 5 poor families. $1200 will give a homeless family a place to live and they will forever be grateful.
e) Continue MoL’s monthly sponsorship of 150 orphaned children so they can have nutritious food to eat, books and uniforms for school, and new clothes to wear for Tet.
Our projects depend solely on individuals donation and contribution. Please consider donating to MoL. Your donation will go a long way. $10 per pay check can send one child to school for one month.

About Messengers of Love Messengersof Love (MoL) is a 501c(3) non-profit organization - Tax ID #: 11-3730103. Member of the Combined Federal Campaign - CFC Code: 34043
PURPOSE: MoL started with the purpose of sponsor, help, bring love and happiness, special childhood moments to the orphaned and poor children of Vietnam.
BACKGROUND: Each year, thousands of children in countries such as Vietnam are abandoned by their parents for reasons such as illness, death, and economics hardship. These children end up on the streets or in orphanages. According to Unicef, there are over a million children in Vietnam who are orphaned and live on the street or in orphanages. These children lack access to essential health services, suffer from hunger or even starvation, experience mental and physical health problems. They have no hope of a future and have no one to love.
Children who grow up unloved and abandoned will often experience low self esteem and emotional insecurity, which could adversely affect their futures. Through our love and support, we can make a positive impact on a child’s life, and brightening their future. Their future will be improved because they have been physically and emotionally nurtured, they will grow up confident and emotionally secure, and will be more likely to treat others with kindness.
