Advocating for two cuties from Peru!

We went on a sponsor trip the beginning of May to Peru to visit three of our Compassion kids there.  It was an amazing trip (sorry I haven't blogged about it yet....soon I hope!).

After the trip, I received 2 packets for kids from Peru (plus one I had picked up on the trip, whom I found a sponsor for). 

Below are the two kids I'm advocating for another week or so here:


Here are Briggtte and Nilton.

Nilton is 6...almost 7 (birthday is August 23, 2007). He's from the north/central part of Peru, lives with both parents and there are 3 kids in his family. Briggtte is 8...almost 9 years old (birthday is June 20, 2005). She's actually from one of the centers we visited in the north part of Peru (but I didn't have her packet at the time so I didn't get any individual pictures of her unfortunately since I didn't know to look for her). I can show you general pictures of her project though if you do sponsor her. It was a wonderful project with lots of great skills training, great project staff, etc. She lives with both parents and there are two kids in her family. 

 Let me know if you are drawn to either of these kids and want to become their sponsor.  Our Peru kids are great writers so far, and we get letters pretty on schedule every two months or so.
