August and September finances were both put up after September as the receipts were all compiled during Dale's October trip. Looking to have them compiled first in Cambodia, reviewed in Singapore and then double-checked again quarterly.

Thanks to regular donors and fundraising, we can expect about US$1,500-US$2,000 a month for the next 12 months.

That used to be enough.

Respite care from the slum relocation, the switch from meal supports to full meals for the kids, the move to the better house and hiring trained and experienced staff - all this has added up.

Our expenses were US$1,800-US$2,200 a month. They’re now about US$3,500 a month.

Is it worth it? Yes. We can reach the entire family, not just the children. The children are safer and healthier. Our staff are able to go beyond school support to counselling, health education and more. We are now doing so so much more.

But to get there we need another US$18,000 for the next 12 months. That’s US$25 a month from sixty people.

Please be one of those sixty.

Pretty straightforward. A note on August though - Dale is going up in September to go through all the receipts etc, so both August and September will be published together at the end of September.

First off, apologies for not putting this up earlier. I assumed I had as the spreadsheets were all done and mailed off. The May spreadsheet does not have a second list of expenses, as those receipts were saved for June and bundled in with that.

Here are the April finances, a bit different from previous months as I split a long list of items off into a second spreadsheet again, most of it furniture, kitchen and boarding things.

Here are the March finances, a bit different from previous months as I split a long list of items off into a second spreadsheet. This was mostly equipping the kitchen.
