The $6000 Mark Reached!

We are very excited to say we have reached our first milestone: $6000!! That is enough to finish the school in its entirety as well as have uniforms made for every child in the kindergarten. They have: built the gables, erected the roof, and screeded and plastered inside and out. They are now presently making doors and shutters and once finished with that will build some steps and paint. And presto, new kindergarten school! If we get some more donations trickling in we hope to help them build desks and chairs so that all children can have one each. That's our SECOND MILESTONE. But we can breathe a little easier knowing that the big element is almost done. And again, we have YOU ALL to thank. This has truly been a wonderful experience for us, and we hope we have been able to impart a little of that through the photos and videos. And its not over yet - they will be officially commissioning the school mid-May, and so we will have more to report on then.
