Thanks from Beth but also thanks to everyone on the mailing list who
took pens and pencils to Karen at Cafe Eleven for Beth`s girls in Senegal.
From Beth
I owe lots of people an absolutely huge thank you. Before my parents came out to visit me over the Easter holidays, they started a fantastic little appeal for pens and pencils which Charlotte and I needed for FAS JOM - the group of girls who do not have the opportunity to go to school.
The amount of donations was overwhelming. We were really touched when we saw my parents at the airport, carrying two whole suitcases full of pens, pencils, rulers, exercise books and maths equipment. I really can't thank you enough!
The girls have loved all of the new stationary, have found a new interest in learning and are really doing a brilliant job of it! They are understanding so much more in much less time! Thank you again to everybody who gave.
Just to show you how your donations are being used, here are a few photos of the girls. More to follow I promise but they tend to get a little distracted if we get the camera out!
