    I should have rephrased the question. Let me know if it's a new performance. If anyone hasn't seen CWO documentary - www.children.org/join/landing/empowerment/colombia-orchestra/premiere

    There is a performance every year so this should be a new one for the holiday season.

Question to Tim Bachta – VP, IT

MSC archived stories - April 13, 2024 With system changes happening at CI, you may want to read this... www.hso.com/blog/ai-for-non-profits-how-your-organization-can-implement-ai-solutions-without-breaking-the-bank#the-children-international-story It says, by 2025, CI hopes to have no data centers or VMs and be 100% cloud-hosted and cloud-native. Ex military man, Mr Bachta's driving CI into "No VMs" world is very concerning. Virtual Machines are cloud based, so allow staff to work from anywhere. Getting rid of VMs means AI (Artificial intelligence) will dominate future of CI operation. What that means for child-sponsor relationship? Well, 3 weeks ago I asked my Juliana… "You used to handwrite letters and draw pictures for me but how do you find the new way of communication?" She replied… "While I enjoy digital communication, I do miss the personal touch of handwritten letters." Our digital letters will be scanned and edited by AI before passing onto ch...

Can you guess the odd one out?

MSC archived stories -  April 5, 2020   You may have noticed this that sometimes children draw pictures in their letters, which correspond with what they wrote, and other times just random drawing or coloring. This week, Ana and Mairani who are twice/half each other’s age and go to the same CC wrote about their lives and drew pictures for me. Irrespective of the writings in Spanish, including English translation, I can see their state of mind and the connection they so lovingly want to establish through drawing medium.  (images saved to My Media)                         In 4hrs from Guadalajara going to the beach is a few days picnic for one family. She tells me how pretty the sound of waves crashing on the shore, and so nice and soft the shining sand and beautiful shells on the beach. It seems like they had a boat ride too! Girl hoping to get full marks at year-end exam! Decorative Christmas tree, but it wasn’t ...

Value for Money with EG

MSC archived stories - March 5, 2022 CI 2021 Annual Report (concise) just came out at the February end. 82% - Program cost 18% - Running cost I pondered on something which I thought sharing with you. That is, the 10% service charge on Extra Gift donations we make over $100. For example, $110 will result the child/family receiving $99 to spend on. However, if I want to give the child $100 + (10% to CI) = $110, my contribution will remain the same yet the family receives more! This sounds like the latter approach better serves the beneficiaries financially than the former and could be seeing as justification for supporting struggling families earning less than $3 per day. But in another context, you may argue that cost of providing services is mutually exclusive from value of goods. It's like buying a book versus paying a teacher to teach it to a child. So, organizations like CI have adopted the policy of charging a fixed 10% of donated amount, which I think compared to the last year...
