WelcometomyAsianNeighborhood

There are so many amazing kids in Asia, and their lives all look so different that we couldn’t just stay in one neighborhood! We wanted to take you with us all over the HUGE continent of Asia and show you children’s lives. They may look really different from your life — but what are the ways they look the same? Let’s explore Asia together!

We'll start in Bhorsha's & Asha's HOME in BANGLADESH!

We bet you’ve spent a lot of time at home over the past year. Maybe you even did school at home! 

Twin sisters Bhorsha and Asha have been at home a lot too. Their mom has worked hard to take care of the twins and their big sister. It’s a good thing they all like spending time together!

The sisters have spent a lot of time with their mom on her bed, where she reads stories to them and helps them with their schoolwork.

Several times this year, teachers at the Compassion center the girls attend have visited them and brought them groceries. This was a BIG deal because sometimes their mom couldn’t find work, and she worried about feeding her daughters.

What do you love about your home?

Until recently, Nawipimoo and his friends didn’t have a playground or a park in their whole entire neighborhood!
