Thank you
January 28, 2011
Hello Dear Friends,
We extend our gratitude to all who helped give our community a wonderful Christmas. Without your love and compassion for the less fortunate many in our community would have had a bleak festive season. Thank you for walking the walk with us.
Children waited anxiously to see if Father Christmas managed to drop off a gift for them. During the school holidays we can have up to a thousand children visiting us. Many of them are from orphaned households sometimes totalling 15 per family, so you can imagine the big strain it puts on the grannies having to provide food and clothing for these little ones.
As education is the success to anyone’s life we try everyday to give these children a lesson in life skills. We explain to our children at Christmas time it is not about a gift it is time to celebrate the birth of Jesus and he shares his birthday with us.
This teenage headed household of boys have lost their parents and were chased out of their home as they were not providing anything toward there upkeep. A place for them to stay was found and with your help we managed to feed and clothe them but school uniforms always a big problem to purchase due to the costs.
There are so many children who turn to us for help at this time of the year.
These little poppets above are in the same situation as many other children here in Inchanga area are child headed households.
Thank you to our community ladies who assist me in taking care of these children.
Thanks you for your ongoing support.
So give yourselves a hug from us all
A hug is a perfect gift — one size fits all –And no one minds if you return it
LOVE DAWN
