Over the past week we have made slow but steady progress for Thao. We are still working on obtaining passports for Thao and her Father. We are told that it will take 3 weeks to complete this process. Hopefully that will hold true. After we get the passports we will need to apply for a VISA at the American Embassy. The Embassy is known for turning down applications, especially on the first try. Hopefully this will not be the case for Thao.
Later this week I will book tickets for Thao, her Father and myself on Cathay Pacific. I’m shooting for the end of August. Hopefully this time frame isn’t pushing things too much.
We have yet to secure a host family for Thao, but HSCV volunteers Cathy and Kim have been working hard to make it happen. They will be interviewing a few potential host families later this week.
We been able to raise some funds for Thao’s stay in America, but we are still in need of more. She will be there for up to a year. Hopefully the donation will continue to come in.
Please wish us luck and thank you for all of your kind thoughts and donations for Thao.
