Payment of tuition fee
By Mbeng Simon Nsah | The Director
Since the last report Better Family Foundation (BFF) staff have embarked on screening new students from marginalized backgrounds for assistance for 2017/2018 academic year. The exercise was not that easy as the staff have to visit individual homes of the children in order to assess their living status.
After the exercise twenty new students were added and that brings the number of beneficiary children to eighty (80). Since classes have resumed in most of the schools in this part of the country, the fee for all students on our pay roll who are currently in school have been paid. For those who are not yet in school theirs will be paid immediately they resumed. classes and if not we shall replace them with those on the waiting list.
We are grateful to those who are supporting this program by any means. We promise to keep using your donations for the highest good of mankind and in respect to your desire.

ENCOURAGING CHILDREN TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL
By Mbeng Simon Nsah | The Director
During this period Better Family Foundation (BFF) Management focused its attention on the "Go back to school campaign". This is because from November 2016, the teachers' trade union in this side of the country went on strike and classes were suspended.
Even when the the strike was suspended last April, parents refused that their childern will not return to school. Under this state of affairs, Better Family Foundation began a campaign in order to motivate the children under our sponsorship program to return to school. In this respect, BFF staff have been contacting parents and children at their homes and educating them on the important of education. So far many of the children returned to school though their classes remained very timid.
BFF continues to appreciate all the stakeholders who contributed in anyway to ensure the sustainability of this project.
