Dream Home Celebrates One Year - Hope, Courage and Learning

By Sylvester Renner | Project Leader

Happy Birthday Dream Home!
Happy Birthday Dream Home!

Dear Project Partners,

It's hard to believe that the Dream Home opened its doors to Ebola orphans over a year ago already.  It has been one amazing year of progress and growth - thanks to your support.  

Over the past year we have been through times of sickness and health. We have been through times of want and plenty.  Overall it has been an amazing journey of hope, courage and learning.

In May, we celebrated the Dream Home being open for one year. Food and drinks were shared and the kids danced with joy and thankfulness. They performed a skit. There was also presentation from Geraldine.

A celebration each month: With 22 kids, there is never a dull moment. Each month we have a small birthday party to recognize and celebrate each child. Our goal is to treat these kids as the special kids that they are.

Over the past year the kids have gone from being isolated orphans to a family that is dreaming again - thanks to the support they have received.  We could not have supported these deserving children without your support and we are so thankful to you!

With Deepest Appreciation,

The Develop Africa and Dream Home Team
