Hello everyone,
I wanted to let you know what a real difference your donations are making! I was in Masara Village on the first day of school this year and had a chance to talk with Um Hasan, Um Hisham, and other volunteers who get up each morning to make healthy food for the kids. With your help, they were prepared for the new school year!
A private donor enabled them to get a new stove (so there is no need for rocks to help keep the burners balanced) and a new juicer. They are even going to be able to buy and install a hot water heater for the cafeteria so that in winter time they will have warm water for doing all the dishes.
We are also continuing to cover the monthly expenses of buying basic items like flour, milk, fruits, vegetables, oil, and gas to keep the cafeteria running!
Many thanks for your generous support!
