Project Compassion boxes:
Please continue to encourage your child to contribute towards the Project Compassion boxes. Donations are to be returned just prior to the Easter weekend. The money is collected to help vulnerable communities forge a path out of poverty. There are many amazing initiatives which your donation will support, among them are education programs, supporting initiatives of community health workers, vocational training opportunities, and providing life-changing water tanks for families.
