Good morning my sweet sisters 



It was a long long time since I write to you. But I follow your stories very closely I love them all. Today I come to you again for some advice and leading. We have in Namibia in our region Swakopmund and Walvisbay Coastal Towns



a total lockdown of 6months it was scary.No schools for all months. Parents lost jobs. but we continue helping where we can by collecting and giving out food and necessary help and education which we also dint know it was new to us.



We pray Cry in secret and the next morning we stand up and continue.



we in the meantime start making Gardens for each person we give a food parcel for. Our biggest problem and challenge is the teenagers are very affected. Both sexes boys and Girls.so many girls fall pregnant . Gender-based cases increasing so also sexually abuse and prostitution our young people in the Informal settlements are in big danger.



We are planning a workshop for girls AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. How can we get funds quickly just to set up such a workshop? In a small place where they can also overnight. We only need US 2000.0



Much love and Strongs from Namibia
