The Starfish

As I walked on the beach one morning, I saw a young man picking up starfish from the sand and flinging them back into the sea.

I asked him what he was doing. "If I don't save them, they will die in the noonday sun," he replied.

"But there are thousands of starfish on this beach," I replied. "What difference does it make to save just a few?"

He looked down at the starfish in his hand and flung it to safety in the waves.

"It makes a big difference to this one!" he said.

Make Poverty History -- one person at a time    

With your help, hope is not an idle dream...

Tania is a Christian. Her family lives In a  village called Rak Dera Chahal on the eastern outskirts of Lahore, Pakistan. There is a small community of very poor Christians in the village -- but there is a beautiful Christian school that provides almost-free education for all communities in the village. The school is dependent on financial help to stay open, but we believe any price is worth it to give children like Tania a chance. The RDC school is supported by Starfish Asia.    

  Together we can make a difference!       

 The Starfish Asia Fund is committed to bring new hope to the lives of the poor,

especially among Christians in Pakistan.

We support the education of more than 2,000 children from poor families.

We, who have so much, feel it a privilege to help those who have so little.

We can't help them all -- but we surely must help some!
