It is another term, a term which was full of ups and downs. We have experienced a lot of difficulties with pupils running back to their usual dumpsites because of lack of food. We have struggled with the food shortage and high cost of every food stuff. But we thank our well-wishers and donors who have enabled us to go and persuade these kids and have managed to bring them back to the Centre. This happened because we managed to buy sacks of dry maize, beans and rice for them. We had gone round from store to store in such of these in vain. For sure, thank you our brothers and sisters out there who are helping us keep and teach these kids. We pray for you and sincerely you will not lack anything in your life. Your donation makes a lot of difference to these kids. I don’t think we could manage to keep these kids at this Centre without your help. Thank you indeed.
We also thank our Area Chief and our Councilor who called a Baraza (Area Meeting) and asked everyone to get concerned with those kids who have gone back to the street and dumpsites. He told the gathering quote Please go everywhere and look for these kids and bring them back to the Centre because if you will not do this, you will be grooming a very bad society which will come back to this community and kill us. Please get involved! Unquote. When these kids heard that we now have enough stock of food, they agreed to come back to the Centre and we are happy that we closed the School when all of them are here. We have even managed to order School uniforms for those whose uniforms are torn. We have promised to supply them with a pair of shoes when we open in January and we are praying that we shall fulfill our promise, with the help of your donation.
May God our Lord bless you and we wish you a Merry Christmas and a wonderful and prosperous New Year.
