Recently some our children returned from a visit to Cape Town where they were hosted by Hands on Africa. The children were able to experience many new things and it will long live in their memories. We've taken the liberty of sharing Hands on Africa's newsletter on the children's visit. We are so grateful for the experience that everyone shared and the kindness in all of their hearts.
Here's some thanks that Hands of Africa wished to share:
Thank you to the host-parents who opened up their homes to these children: Francois and Karen Cronje; Diana and Erhardt Theart and their daughter, Jolene; Giovanni and Carminda Mangliavalli; Kobus and Nina Barnard; Carina Howard and her family; Marius and Marthe Malan; Werner and Monica Jurgens; Johan and Amelia Kroes and Charl and Corlia du Plessis. Thanks to our sponsors, the V@A Aquarium; Ster-Kinekor, Melkbos Spur and Pinnacle Marketing. Thank you to the individual sponsors, Johann and en Tania de Clerk; Jenny Bosman; Hellani Briers and Elmarie Marais.
Thank you to Lydia du Plessis for hand knitting a teddy bear for Angel. Thank you to Erhardt and Diana Theart for driving the bus that brought the children here and back.
