We would like to acknowledge all the loyal supporters who have given so much, those who have bequeathed money through bequests and the many individuals who have supported our work so graciously. We are very grateful for all your support. We have the opportunity to increase the scope and the impact of what we do, to be part of an organization and a witness to the transformation that love and compassion, when applied to high standards, can bring to the lives of vulnerable, poor, deprived, oppressed, underprivileged, downtrodden and despair people and their communities. We praise God for the encouragement these projects have given to many people who have been otherwise rejected.
