As with last year here is a list of all the help your funding gave.

  • 11 New Houses on existing land plus 1 house and purchase of land
  • 2 Roofs on existing houses
  • 36 chickens
  • Numerous pots, pans and barrels
  • Material for 35 dresses and 22 school uniforms
  • Material for 20 shawls
  • 60 cotton reels
  • Material for 100 bags and tablecloths to sell (ask us we have a few bags to sell)
  • 50kg of grain
  • Calor Gas for porridge club
  • 11 blankets
  • Numerous pens and exercise books for the school and development centre
  • Medical treatments and medicine for two adults and one child
  • Eye operation
  • Bed and Mattress
  • Funding for extra milk
  • College fees
  • School fees for 2 children for one year
  • 22 pairs of shorts.

 

We cannot put into words how gratefully your contributions were received.The children’s clothes again very well received.

Smiles on a mother’s face seeing their kids in clean untorn clothes are priceless.

The pens and books for the school are life changing, giving the chance of an education.

The sewing material and seeds all help to generate some income by making clothing and growing crops.

The houses probably have the greatest impact on people’s lives. A year on we saw people who last year had very little hope, this year staying dry in the rains and not just surviving but having a little extra by growing vegetables to sell on.
