Dear Donors and Supporters,
We are writing with a direct update on our project to build a roofed classroom for 200 children.
Despite our best efforts, we have not yet raised the funds required to begin construction and are still far from our goal.
As you read this, the children we aim to help are trying to learn in a classroom with no walls and no roof just the open sky. When the rain falls, their lessons stop. When the sun is too fierce, their lessons stop. We have not been able to change this reality for them yet.
We have not started building because we simply do not have the resources to buy the cement, roofing, and benches. We know a permanent classroom will change their lives, and we are determined to build it. But we cannot do it alone.
Please consider sharing our story with your friends and family. The first step to building a classroom is to lay a foundation of support.
To those who have already given to this project, we say a very big thank you. Your generosity is a beacon of hope.
Thank you for believing in their future.
With hope,
Joy Ojochogwu Etubi
Project leader
