01.13Back To School
This past Saturday, backed by generous support from Will’s family and friends back home, AR put on a big back-to-school bash for kids in the township. What made this party special is the fact that it was initiated by Will’s nieces and nephews, who wanted to do something special to help the children of Mamelodi. Help they did, as each child was given a parcel of brand-new school supplies… not to mention, boerevors, ice cream, jumping castles and a waterslide! Check out Will’s blog post for his reflections on the day and of course photos.
Children aren’t the only ones starting a new school year this week. Our classes at the Powerhouse resume tomorrow, and we are eager to begin working with and encouraging a next set of students. Thanks for your prayers as a new term gets underway!

Good to hear that your next classes are starting. Would love to know if the previous students are getting jobs or more interviews because of their new found skills. Keep up the good work.
