From: Door of Hope
Subject: thank you letter
To: Develop Africa Team

The Board of Directors membership and the children of Door of Hope want to thank our partners [GlobalGiving, Develop Africa and Aunty Janet Tucker) for their generosity to meet our needs at the perfect time. The school materials received were distributed to the children. Door of Hope decided to open a study parlour for the children using the text books received as reference materials.

Text books received are on the following subject areas: Literature, Mathematics, Science and English the actual subjects we need to lay the foundation to develop young minds for new discoveries innovations that will transform our community, country and continent. Some of the children have started borrowing books from the mini Library.

As a way to motivate the children to develop a culture of reaching, this organization’s given prizes to the children that will read and explain the highest number of books every month the children hearts were filled with joy when these materials were given to them. For most of them it was the first time in their lives to own a packet of crayons. We thank God because you found us. You found us at a time when we needed light to shine in the darkness of our path to be what we were made to be. You found us and brought hope to our fragile hearts. Our dreams will live because of you. Thank you so very much
