We did it with your generous donations!
Global Enrichment Foundation and Hope For the Nations want to say "thank you" for your help on our last Convoy For Hope. We touched many lives and gave people hope for a better future.
The following is an excerpt from the 'field' about some orphanages that our GEF team was able to help out over the holidays:
"On the 25th of December 2011, with the help of Bani’Adam, the Convoy for Hope delivered 200 bags of assorted food and 16 cartons of cooking oil to the Nahrein Orphanage in Afgoye Corridor, about 18 miles south of Mogadishu. This area is controlled by rebels and therefore largely devoid of many aid agencies.
During initial convoy assessments, the GEF team discovered that the Nahrein Orphanage houses and cares for approximately 450 orphaned children, 170 of which are receiving basic education. The team also noted that although the orphanage received some support from the Diaspora, resources were very stretched and the children were undernourished.
On the final day of the 4th Convoy for Hope, the 26th of December 2011, food aid was delivered to the Elman Peace and Human Rights centre in Wadajir district, Umul Aisha Orphanage in Hamarweyne district, and the Halgan Orphanage in Dharkiinley district."
We couldn't have done it without you!
