TRUSTEES REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
We are pleased with how things are going with the work in the children’s homes and school. Each home has been visited except for Myanmar as it was decided it was too vola=le for us to visit at this =me due to a new rule brought in by the military junta. The home there is con=nuing to run well despite the problems in the country, and we will try to visit again next year.
Both Mary France and Mervyn and Lucy France visited India to see the works and the children finding all well.
Mervyn and Lucy France also visited the work we support in Thailand and was thrilled to be able to meet some of the older young people who were previously in the home we supported but are now on their own working and doing well., next they visited Nepal to see the work there and visit various churches and schools besides the children’s homes.
The school in Kenya was visited twice by Mervyn and Lucy France, there are now 80 children in the school and uniforms and shoes were bought for all of them, there is now school con=nues to do well and get high marks in exams, these children come from the most difficult of circumstances, living in slums, many have no fathers and what parents they have are oLen alcoholics so it is a privilege to be able to provide an educa=on and a way out of the poverty they live in.
Finance has con=nued to come in and all costs have been covered. At this =me we are expanding the school buildings in the school in Kenya and the work progresses as the finance comes in, it is one step at a =me. As a group of trustees and church we
