Message from Fanuel, the School Director

Hello,

I hope  you and your families are doing well.  Thank you so very much for the big efforts you have and continue doing towards sponsoring  children in our schools as well as the drives you  are doing that are enabling us put learning materials in the hands of the children and teachers. These efforts  in the long run  are going to help our kids to improve their academic standards and thus have higher chances of  passing the national examinations and success in life.

Another successful year is coming to an end, we can not say how  fast time is flying , thanks to your efforts we have moved. We moved a big step, the latrine land is now fully bought,  four latrines were put up by Feed the Children and are fully functional , the kitchen is now done though few finishing touches are still in progress or waiting, the number of kids who are sponsored continue to grow, the drives you have done so far has made   a big difference. For all these to have taken place, it shows what a collective effort of a dedicated group can do.

The year started on hard note economically and it has remained so to date,  times have been hard, especially with food and many life essentials, prices went through the roof, but we thank God that you stood with us all through and now we are coming to the end of the year still strong enough to continue . We pray that the coming year would come with a difference and that the world economy will have come out of recession  and things will brighten up  somehow.

Thank you so very much those of you who have been shopping on our online shop for your sponsored kids, those who been sending parcels full of gifts to their sponsored kids and many of you who have taken time to write letters and cards with encouraging words to their  sponsored children.  You may not know but all these motivates the children so very much and thus many work even harder in class.

Step by step we are changing our Soweto slums community, When we look back and see the number of kids who have joined universities, some who have been lucky to join middle class colleges and those who might have not been able to join college but doing something for themselves . Even those who have not been so lucky, we are still happy for them at least they are not illiterate and thus they will know how to take care of their children .

Lastly please allow me to mention a few  of sponsors who have  been putting in more hours volunteering in doing different tasks for the smooth running of the programme, Christy, Julie, Lynn, Brenda and Lorna,  thank you so very  much  for the big efforts .

May the Almighty bless you and your families abundantly.

Thank you
