Our first two groups of primary school have completed high school. The first group had 17 students and they did their final high school exam in the year 2016. Seven of them joined different universities and Ten have joined other tertiary colleges. The second group which did their final exams last year (2017) were Twenty. Eleven of them have joined different universities and Nine have joined tertiary colleges. This has succeeded because of YOUR commitment and sacrifice to make a difference in the lives of the orphaned and poor children.
YOUR support has enabled us to help these children because high school fees is very expensive and not many poor and orphans find opportunity to finish. In Malava about 150,000 children get to go through primary school but only 15% join and complete high school. An orphan or a poor child finishing high school is so encouraging in our community. YOU have enabled Tumaini to pay school fees for these children and it is not taken for granted, the Mark has been marked and will never be erased in their lives and even in the community.
This year has been so hard for Tumaini family as High school fees has not been paid well. Our high school page is not active and we struggled this semester. Most of our students were sent home due to unpaid school fees and it was sad to see them back home. We know we can do better to help these students to remain in school and study and this will be achieved if we can share what we are doing with our families and friends. Most of our friends may not be knowing what we are doing in the lives of the needy, please find time and share our cause to build our support family.
Once again thank you for your support and your passion to make a difference in the lives of the needy. Together we can!
