~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Home School Foundation Report ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Friends of the Home School Foundation, We are pleased to let you know that along with a growing number of requests for help due to our troubled economy, the Lord has continued to provide the funds needed to help these families. Thank you to so many of you for making this ministry possible. While some ministries are experiencing shortfalls, we have seen God faithfully provide for the widows and struggling families. We praise God that He allows us to be His channel of blessing. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Because You Helped Each one who has prayed and/or given is a part of the blessings. Here are just a few notes from grateful parents that testify to the power of your gifts: "I received the check yesterday to apply towards my daughter's curriculum for this year. I am so thankful; I don't even know how to begin to express it. You have no idea what this means to our family right now. We have had so many problems finding the right curriculum to work with her, and I have very high hopes for this year. I would have never been able to afford this on my own. Please let everyone on the board know that this is so huge for us. Again, thank you a million times over!" --The B. Family "I want to thank you for your prayers and generosity toward my family this month and over the past few years. I pray God will restore and bless all that so graciously gave and those who distributed the gifts. Blessings to you and yours 'til He returns". --Mary C. "Your ministry organization has been the lifeline we needed to continue to homeschool. With your help I am able to purchase full curriculum again." --Diane B. "Thank you so much for the grant. God is so good to us. We are blessed with two boys who are truly gifts from the Lord. They have many challenges, but God is faithful to provide for our needs. We are thankful to be able to homeschool our boys and your grant has made it possible to purchase materials for them that we had put off for quite some time. They feel like Christmas has come early!" --Tammy W. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Give the Homeschool Cookbook: Family Favorites from the Homeschool Kitchen Filled with mouth-watering recipes and heartwarming stories from homeschooling cooks of all ages, "Family Favorites from the Homeschool Kitchen" will brighten your kitchen and delight your family for years to come. You can purchase the cookbook for yourself or a loved one or make a donation of one to a homeschooling widow the Home School Foundation assists. Proceeds from the cookbook will go to the Foundation. So you can discover new dishes, enjoy the delightful stories, and help needy homeschoolers at the same time. Go here to find out how to order your book. http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=6182 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Patrick Henry College Scholarship for HSLDA Members Accepting Applications The Patrick Henry College Scholarship for HSLDA members rewards academic excellence and exemplary leadership through tuition scholarships to Patrick Henry College, a Christian liberal arts school located in Purcellville, Virginia. http://www.hslda.org/elink.asp?id=6183 We are accepting applications from February 15 through May 15 for the 2009 school year.

Consequently, we want to promote these opportunities for homeschool students to develop their skills and abilities. You can help us by encouraging your family and friends to participate and get the word out about upcoming contests for homeschool students. We greatly appreciate your partnership in this project that promotes excellence and blesses the needy!
