Avuxeni, Minjani? Umfekile minjani! (Greetings, how are you? I am well!)
Welcome to 2023! Whew, we made it! And it's all started again!
What an exciting GivingTuesday, December period, and January we had through your support on GlobalGiving! We have a whole lot of new supporters as well as the return of a number of old hands. Welcome all to 2023 and to Keep The Dream196.
I received a number of really REALLY encouraging notes from people who donated which I have placed below. Sometimes when you are in battle, up to your eyeballs, you can lose sight of the horizon and the future. It was a great encouragement to hear other people's stories and the impact of the support they have received in the past and continued to pass on today because the value they place on the support received.
You are such an integral part of our success, seeing young lives changed through care, support and skills is so exciting. Have you ever seen a child faced with a difficult task and then suddenly SEE the light bulb literally go on in their face? The Ah Ha! Moment. I love it, I see it through this program, and we see the success and the determination in their faces. It’s exhilarating.
Through your support, we reached last year's target of raising $70,000USD. You have enabled us to be secure and make confident financial decisions regarding our work, which is ENORMOUS. THANK YOU!
This means we can continue with all our programs in 2023 and expand them. YOU MADE THAT HAPPEN.
Thank you for being such a huge part of our success you really are integral to the work we do. Every cent is valued and used to its utmost effectiveness. If anyone would like our last year's Annual Financial Statements, you are welcome to request them at director@keepthedream196.com
Over the next few weeks, for the new supporters, I will share more information about who we are and what we are achieving.
Many Blessings to all and I pray that 2023 will be a year of consolidation, and expansion for each one of you as well as KTD196.
