Still impacting Africa

 

It is always exciting to read a FALA impact report. When Sharon Sambas,  a previous  FALA Winner organized a Christmas Hamper Donation to vulnerable families and children in Epworth there was a sense of joy and uplift. This is a highly impoverished town in Zimbabwe, and she brought extra comfort to those living there. The program oversaw the donation and distribution of non-perishable food items and essential relief items. The free copies of ‘Rhapsody of Realities‘ that went to 40 families and 400 children of the ‘Open Tribe Foundation’ were well received. This is a foundation that cares for vulnerable families in this town. This brought optimism and delight to the hearts of these people as they had a great Christmas celebration.
