Chedraui..

MSC archived stories - January 4, 2018

One of the biggest supermarkets in Mexico. I use them to send food supplies to Ana (part of my nutrition program) – everything done online [www.chedraui.com.mx] with a whole team of incredible staff/management helping me out with the gifts!

 

Just received photos taken by them of the gift delivery made today. This is way over my expectations!! I loved the decorated box with neatly assembled items and to accompany stuffed toys was a very nice gesture – I greatly appreciate the care and efforts taken by the store staff at Chedraui (Vallarta), and I thanked them for coordinating this gift delivery successfully.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Querida Ana

Les envío tres artículos nutritivos con cada suministro por 30 días, por lo que usted / familia puede decidir cómo administrar / consumir los alimentos durante el período de 3 meses. Ha sido comprado por mí desde México usando una tienda en línea y entregado como paquete directo.

¡Estar sano!

Amor, Chelaka

    That's an exciting post, chelaka (and I don't even have a sponsored child in Mexico...but I'm considering it) What a splendid service! Thank you for the tip (which I might be using soon) and special applause to you for tending to nutrition. Food first! I have marked your post "favorite" so I can reference your advice.

    Good tip! I don't sponsor any children in Mexico, but I've visited the country 6 times and the three big supermarkets are: Chedraui, Soriana and Bodega Aurrera. Soriana also seems to offer home delivery, so that might be another option that could work. For those who sponsor in Colombia, Exito and Carulla are the two big online supermarkets. I prefer to just send Extra Gifts, so I don't have any first-hand experience with any of the websites I mentioned.

    I'm excited to learn of this option in Mexico! I have previously used Tu Guatemala in Guatemala and Shopzed in Zambia, but I didn't know of any options in Mexico. Thank you for sharing!

Pause for Thought! – The value of sponsorship

MSC archived stories - March 2, 2019 As we know the sponsorship does not demand us to write, send special needs or extra gifts to our children, but being a "silent" sponsor does your monthly contribution bring real value (for money) – especially if you live outside the USA, you or CI don't even get tax benefits of your charitable donation? Is this because most sponsors can't afford anymore than the monthly fee to sponsor a child or trust CI so much that they do not feel needing to play an active role in their sponsored child(ren)'s lives to have an impact?   The sponsorship rewards both sponsor and the child through exchange of letters. Then we have social media platforms, like MSC to share our experiences with fellow sponsors – all can be done for free and bring closer understanding of each other and building friendships for life!   But above all sponsorship motivates your child to attend their community center more often not only for letter reading/writing but a...

Highlight of my 2018:

MSC archived stories -  January 1, 2019 In accordance with Guatemalan tradition, Katerin took a year break from school – just before I met her to celebrate quinceañera (girl celebrating her 15th birthday). She is now one and a half years away from graduating from the CI program. She is full of hopes for the future and determined to do well in studies, even though there were some setbacks in her academic performance in the past, as revealed in Education Report (ER). The ER, however stated that  “we do not recommend the sponsor send extra contribution for Katerin’s education since the risk that she will not be responsible is high.”    I simply could not believe or accept this premise because I trusted her to do well when she came into my care in early 2017. Katerin wanted to learn typing, so she enrolled in a course at the beginning of the year. In a class of 11 students, she’s doing very well and using a typewriter to write in Spanish. And, we were both fortunate enou...
