Blessing Hands funds educational tuitions for students in the three provinces in China with an emphasis on the Yangshuo, Du'an, and Qinzhou areas of Guangxi Province, P. R. China. In China, children over the age of fifteen do not get educational support from the government. Junior high and high school students are usually boarding students. Girls especially are expected to work to support their family, or their brother’s education. Providing educational grants makes it possible for economically disadvantaged students to overcome the poverty that keeps them and their families trapped in cycles of want and desperation. Our children come from rural families that make a subsistence living. Many of them are orphans living with grandparents or members of single parent families. Their families, heavy with the needs of the older generation, often see them as potential immediate wage earners while they dream of being teachers, doctors, and journalists.
Blessing Hands is a 501(c)(3) public charity administered by a board of five directors under bylaws. Our headquarters is in Morehead, Kentucky, a small college town. Our founder and president is Betty Cutts, a volunteer ESL teacher, housewife, and mother with a master's degree in Education. We are a faith based charity that seeks to help people help themselves and others.
