HI David
We are soooo excited! It is finally happening. I don't know if Yea got any feedback from the Global grant rep when she was here in March? She was suitably impressed and in tears when she heard some of our testimonies of the kids being helped. She said we have now become a flagship project and the next time we apply for a grant it will be quick and simple! I am sure GLenda and Julie all who helped us apply for the first grant will be relieved to know all their labour and patience with us, was not in vain. We are truly looking forward to having you back, showing you around, and meeting your wife.
Cheryl has suggested you come out on teh 10th of NOv so we have diarised that for now. I am hoping that most of our board will be available to come.
Blessings
Kim
