Our beneficiaries in secondary schools are progressing on very well and together with their parents, they are very happy as they no longer miss classes as a result of being sent home for school fees and uniforms. The parents and guardians are now in a position to support the other family members as they appreciate that the burden is not very heavy now and they said thank you to the support given through the global giving and they appreciate everybody who has contributed to their success. I met all the beneficiaries in April when they were on their holiday and we had a discussion with them and I was happy that they are very optimistic and they are working very hard to achieve their goals. They all brought their school report forms showing their class performance for the 1st term of the year. I was impressed as they are performing very well and to be honest they are promising. One of them who is a candidate still maintaining his 1st position and the others being among top ten in their schools. Am very optimistic that our candidate will perform well and secure a position in a good university. Thanks to the support given through global giving, we were able to pay school fees for 2nd term for all them this was grate achievement. We intend to visit their families in the course of this week and we will be supporting them with blankets, mosquito nets, water buckets and water guards. Our country has been affected by the floods and together with our partners and well-wishers, we decided to do an intervention of supporting the communities that we work with as they are affected by the heavy rains and just like in Kokwa Island, we give priority to the global giving beneficiaries as we already know their needy cases. As reported previously, we had intended to fundraise more to accommodate more beneficiaries but we have not managed to get more resources but we remain more optimistic and request our friends and well-wishers to consider supporting our students through their education. Thank you very much
