It's the wet season in Yida right now. Rain has been falling almost every day this August - sometimes all day!
But the good news is that we have delivered your very kind gifts, thank you so much!
Sports kit & various gifts have been sent by Mr. Ben Van Nes on behalf of several UK football clubs.
We have also been able to send some essential equipment for David 'Abdigan,' our senior coach co-ordinator, and his team in Yida.

We sent a very special gift of 5 assorted rubber balls, a Sondico double action pump and an Apple iPad, this from our late friend, Arike. We are truly thankful to Arike’s partner, Leah Thorn, who kindly delivered the gift.
All this has really filled staff, volunteers and youngsters in Yida with joy,despite the challenging circumstances. Again a big thank you!
