Dear Debra
Its been too long since we last communicated,things are
fine in SA Schools have just started again on monady for educators and yesterday
for learners. we are looking forward to a prosperous year.
I am aware that you are working in a process of raising
funds for our school library and we are waiting for the day the library will be
built.
The reason i am sending you this email is because we
are finding ourselves in a disastrous situation financial. Our school is non fee
government school meaning that the parents are not paying for the education of
their children. The government is giving us R195 000,00 per year to run the
school. In the past that money was supplemented by the donations we were
receiving from the private book suppliers who were giving us 10 % of the amount
of books we bought from them and we could run the school and pay our debts.
Since last year the book suppliers were withdrawn and the government is
supplying the books by itself as a result we are not getting the 10% that was
assissting us financially. That has crippled us seriously. We are unable to pay
all our debts.
For this month and next two months up to March we will
be unable to pay our two Grade R educators which are employed by the sgb. Each
one of them is getting R 8000,00 meaing therefore we are falling short of
R48000,00. We are asking if your institution can to donate the sum up to that
amount to help those educators which we do not want to loose.
It will be appreciated if that can happen starting from
this month. We know that we are diverting from our project but i have tried many
institutions in SA in vain.
Thanking you in advance for your support
Regards
Mr Mnconywa
Mission Statement
The mission of Miss Vicky's Children's Education Fund is to finance the airfare from NYC to Cape Town, South Africa for at least one American teacher to donate his/her tutoring services each summer for several weeks to the children and mothers in Khayelitsha Township District "C" and to provide classroom instruction in the local public school to facilitate a learning environment focused on the improvement of overall literacy. Any additional funds raised will be used to establish a dedicated school library for "C" District. Eventually the hope is to provide each child with a school back pack filled with school supplies and their own reading book during the Holidays.
