Due to a lack of donors for our SCHOOL UNIFORM project this last few weeks/months, we havent been able to distribute any new uniforms. But as ever we are hopeful that we will get support coming in. School uniforms are compulsory for children throughout South Africa, even in rural villages and poor communities. This means that often families, who can scare afford it, have to spend their small amount of income buying a school uniform in order to afford their child a privelege perhaps they didnt have... that of getting and EDUCATION.
Your support in buying school uniforms is primarily aimed at low income families, and especially on children finishing pre-school, who, without a school uniform are not allowed to register for Grade 1 in school. your support for this project could truly mean the world to these children, and give them one of the biggest headstarts we can offer someone in life, the chance to receieve an education, the chance to make life better for yourself.
Thank you to the special donors who have supported and i encourage you to spread the word to friends and family to dig deep!
