Monthly Report for November/December

Written by Teacher Margaret

Jambo family
Trust you are all fine. We too are fine despite the political uncertainity in our country Kenya. We closed school very early due to the repeat of the presidential elections after it had been nullified by the supreme court of kenya. Since then life has not been the same. We have seen killings, destruction of properties and many other atrocities have been commited. Politics has greatly affected poor families who depend on working and getting paid on a day to day basis. Imagine a parent who has to go to wash clothes to get a dollar per day so that their children can get food and because of political happenings they cant go to work! 
Most of happy day families are really affected coz they live way below the poverty line. After we closed school, we received some money from you our partners and we bought food for all the happy day families. Each family received 2kg of maize flour 2kg wheat flour 1kg sugar 1 bar soap Toothpaste Cooking oil Salt 2tissue rolls 1kg porridge flour And petroleum jelly. They all really appreciated. After a few day the sponsored kids got some shopping and shoes. We are very grateful for the help extended to us and especially to the families.
When I when to distribute food, I got really sad news about Mariam's death Mariam was a very beautiful, hardworking, open-minded, active, ready to work and ready to listen girl. One would never have imagined the poor state of her family by just looking at her or her siblings. They are a family of determined people. People with nothing to their name but a happy people. We have received help for the family and on behalf of the family we say ahsante sana. Omar is set to start going to read and learn from a library facility in buruburu. He is starting on 1st December. Thanks again to everyone who is standing with the family.

Our Nov/Dec budget is as follows 
Salaries..... 75,000 
Water............3,000 
Insurance.. 14,000 
Country government licence ..15,000 
Business permit/licence..... 17,000
TOTAL......... 124,000

Note that we have to pay for next years licences in DEC so that we don't get disrupted during our learning.
