Its been seven months since my last post. Perhaps this is a result of some of the challenges i faced over the last few months. I have learned that setting up and successfuly running a charity is not plain sailing. Though one may have the desire to save and change the world thats not enough. Its the begining yes but only that. Having proper systems in place and getting money in the form of donations is also so important. When my money ran out it was difficult for me to continue paying fees for all the kids. As a result two of the kids dropped out of school. Elizabeth (not her real name) who had gone back into the school system got pregnant again and has now dropped out of school for the second time. I dont know what her future holds. Its like a vicious circle of poverty but even now i know she can still turn her life around. Another young boy has dropped out of formal school and gone to a college which is much cheaper than the schools. My heart is so sore because i feel i have failed these children. On a brighter note Faith finished writing her o levels and all her siblings are still in school. Oh God please help us to help these children. Give me wisdom Lord so that i can help. One of the things i know is that I am not a quitter and I know that I can only fail when I stop trying. One day we will have a testimony. God bless you!
