Project Report | Dec 1, 2025
WOW Cafe is a SUCCESS!

WOW Café Progress Report

WOW Café continues to grow beautifully since moving into the wonderful TFFT (The Foundation For Tomorrow) building. The space has been such a blessing—bright, clean, welcoming, and filled with positive energy. Our children love it here. They come to play on the playground, enjoy the open space, and feel safe and happy while they spend time with our team. Seeing them run, laugh, and enjoy a good meal reminds us why WOW Café exists in the first place.

Our partnership with TFFT has also become one of the highlights of our year. Catering for their events has allowed us to build a strong, friendly relationship with a team that truly shares our values. TFFT has embraced us warmly, and together we’re creating an environment where children and families feel supported, encouraged, and cared for. Their staff, facilities, and community spirit have made our work easier and more meaningful.

We are excited to share that we are consistently meeting our sales targets, and our monthly sales continue to grow. Although we are not yet profitable due to the large upfront investments we’ve made—and continue to make—we are confident that WOW Café is moving in the right direction. If this positive trend continues, the café will soon become a steady, reliable source of income for our NGO.

Our daily work reminds us of the many responsibilities we carry: school fees, test fees, uniforms, clothing, medical care, food, home repairs, and the ongoing support of the children and widows who depend on us. WOW Café is helping pave the path toward financial stability so we can keep saying “yes” to the families who need us most. Thank you for standing with us and helping us build a future where our children can grow, play, learn, and enjoy life—even during times when donations are low.
