Sorry, I have not posted in a while. The end of 2018 was hectic for Konim. I am excited to say that with your generous donations we were able to install the whiteboards in each classroom and supply a bookcase with over 100 books for the children at Eye of the Lord Orphanage. In addition, we continued our tradition of gift bags, packed lunches, and toiletries. We had over 12 volunteers with us this year. Double the volunteers we had last year. I am humbled by the support and the growth we have seen thus far.
In 2019, we are looking to grow in our outreach. We are looking to help another orphanage in a rural area in Ghana. If you have any suggestions/recommendations please feel free to contact us. Also, tax letters are going out this week. It was delayed and that is something we will work on. There is so much to learn and tons of work to keep this nonprofit moving forward. I just appreciate the support and guidance we have receive thus far.
Lastly, yesterday was Ghana’s Independence Day. These 62 years of freedom has shown the resilience, growth, and unity of this country. As Kwame Nkrumah eloquently stated: “We face neither East nor West: we face forward.” My hope is that Ghana continues to face forward and that our nonprofit puts in the work to offer avenues of advancement for orphans in rural areas of Ghana.
Peace & Love
