Thanks to HFL's generous donors we assisted more
Limpopo children in 2012 than ever before! Here’s a sampling of the great
work you've supported:
Sixteen Vhutshilo Mountain School Vhutshilo Mountain School children received complete scholarships;
educational costs, school supplies, 2 nutritious meals per day, transport to
and from school, clothing and medical support.
The goat project is up and running! The females
are pregnant and getting fatter with babies due in June/July. Children
and staff love the goat’s milk on their morning porridge and the school is
saving on milk costs.
A new roof and floor were added to VMS’s
caretaker house to provide a new 'home' and on-going support and care for
Phathu, a homeless HIV positive child. Read Phathu's story.
Fences were purchased and installed in the ARV
group children’s gardens, keeping their vegetables safe from goats and other
critters.
Much needed new carpets were purchased for the
floors of the pre-school classroom.
Over 350 Brenda books were purchased and provided
to the children of Limpopo.
TVEP's dedicated employees were honored with
plaques and thank you's. It made their day!
A new server and printer were purchased for the
Tshilidzini Special School students and teachers to print their work.
Three new braille machines are making the life of
our vision-impaired students much brighter.
Our on-going building fund continues to grow with
'matching funds.'
And projects from 2011 continue to move forward
with ongoing funding and support from you!
