NYALEBBE TO RECEIVE FUNDS FROM STUDENTS IN EUROPE
CDA now plans to take off with the first phase implementation of the training in Tailoring and Garments Cutting and Carpentry and Joinery. This has been possible with the funds from the students of Dr. Aletta Jacobs College in the Netherlands who held a sponsor run for Nyalebbe and came up with an incredible final amount of Euro 4800.
We wish to extend our sincere thanks to all the students, the administration of the college, Nabuur, our volunteers/neighbors and all those who have selflessly contributed and will still contribute towards our projects.
In the picture above is our Chairperson Mama Mado and two other members standing next to our sign post, behind is the shelter erected by the community for training in tailoring and garments cutting, with the funds coming, we intend to g,et a bigger space which will accommodate both Tailoring and Carpentry projects.

Dear Vince
I know you are having trouble getting on the internet because of power interruptions (fuel supplies via Kenya disrupted, let us all hope that Kenya is healed soon).
It is wonderful that you have this massive jolt of funds to proceed. It will mean really big management tasks for everyone. How exciting! I hope this is the beginning of real community energy and that the young people feel more optimism about the future.
best wishes
Dennis
