Today the 5th May 2014, there was another kind of celebration. The Abantwane Belanga foundation could hand over another cheque of R10,000 to the project. This time there was not a big event like we had last time, because the children didn’t have school holiday and therefore couldn’t organise a event, but also the board and also the project manager was not available due to the fact that they had to rush for a urgent meeting with the Department of Social Development because of problems regarding funding for the next year. It was a quite hectic day and we decided to hand over the cheque to the management.
Of course we also told the children that where attending the after care, about the amount of money and we asked them to prepare a “Thank You Letter” for the St. Stephanus Primary school in the Netherlands. But the Fieldworkers decided to sing and make music and prepare a thank you video for the school. It was again a lovely afternoon with the children. The amount of money that was funded by the St. Stephanus primary school will also be used for school uniforms, stationary, and health packages for the children.
Unfortunately the “Thank You video” is not available for this website, but you find it on our Abantwane Foundation FACEBOOK page.
