Our Country has just entered the third wave of Covid-19 with the more aggressive and contaminating South African and Indian variants. Our Government has just activated and strengthened protective barrier measures. In the capital, Kinshasa, epicenter of the pandemic, the Police and the Army are enforcing these measures with the option of fines and imprisonment for the recalcitrant. Note that our country records 37,808 cases, 27,938 cured and 879 deaths.
From the outbreak of the pandemic followed by barrier measures, our School, Glenn Paige Nonkilling School, remains closed. Resources are scarce for us to effectively enforce barrier measures for our poor students who study for free.
Due to lack of traffic with Burundi and Tanzania, our Boat is immobilized in the small natural port of Kazimia. It is satisfied with light transport between coastal villages.
The project that we are initiating, despite the difficult times of Covid-19, is to make our Boat profitable so that it meets all the expenses of the School. This requires the acquisition of a powerful new 75 horsepower engine to replace the 55 horsepower engine, 13 years old, damped and completely worn.
Dear friends of our School, we are counting on your generosity for this needy acquisition and to be able to reopen our School for the next school year 2021-2022.
We thank you with all our hearts.
