A lovely message that makes our hearts light from Happy Family Children’s Village, Tanzania:

Dear Sara,

I’m delighted to share with you the outcome of the writing competition. We rewarded the winners with a visit to the bookshop, where they had the chance to choose their favorite storybooks, as well as dictionaries and other academic support materials. They were truly happy and motivated, and this experience has inspired them to continue exploring creative writing whenever they can.

I also shared with them the feedback you wrote, and they were very excited to read it. It helped them understand their work more deeply and encouraged them to keep improving. In addition, we were able to purchase several academic books that will be shared among all the children, ensuring that the entire group benefits from this opportunity.

Thank you once again for your generous support to our children. We look forward to organizing another competition soon and continuing to nurture their love for learning and creativity.

Warm regards,

Salimu Wanjiga

Academic & Sponsorship Coordinator
