Wish I was flying back here from down south ... Really would love to meet up and visit your club. Don't forget though if anyone wants to come over they are more than welcome.
Manacare has made a few leaps forward out here ....
1. The house for the little orphan is about a week away from being finished. Have a little family moving in to look after him too, they have two slightly handicapped children who are looking forward to caring for an older brother. Just need to buy their beds, some kitchen things, and maybe table and chairs and we are there
2. Had a donation of a motor so the learner's swimming pool is FINISHED !!! lessons every morning now.
3. The upstairs is FINISHED !!! I decided to take in just a few orphans to start with, all 17/18. I have four of them and what a delight they are, one poor girl has been constantly raped by father, brothers, and GRANDFATHER
!!!! she was very quiet at first, but now she is even playing netball. Seems a pity to get her a job in a hotel, she is very very bright. The other three also, but they want to work within a family... hopefully am going to get response from one of the Rotary Clubs in Hong Kong or Singapore. Although I have someone there already who wants one of our girls.
It's a six
month course and we can take 20 youngsters. I will slowly buy the things we need and then when we have everything I think we can take more in.
Just hope we are able to raise lots in Marbella in a few weeks time. If things change in any way that mean I can visit south I will of course let you know. Please give my very best wishes to all Rotarians in your club.
