Many of you know Maria from traveling to South Africa on Cheryl Robinson’s yearly trips so you know how dedicated Maria is to helping children. To learn more about this amazing woman, please read on….
With only a sixth grade education, Maria, a woman with strong determination and a beautiful heart, has raised 100s of deprived children, pre-schooled and provided lunch for toddlers left alone while their parents looked for work, and established a school for area kids. She has done all this within the space of her home that was recently damaged by an earthquake. Maria’s dream is to help more children in need. The property behind her house is now for sale and HER DREAM COULD COME TRUE!
Maria has been helping others for years, taking odd jobs and whatever she could do to fund a place for children to live and receive an education. The land behind her house is actually two properties, 4,000 sq. ft and 4,800 sq. ft. IF she can secure this property, she hopes to build a bigger, better home/school to continue helping even more children, YOU CAN MAKE THIS A REALITY! MARIA NEEDS THE FUNDS BY MAY SO TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE!
Due to earthquake damage, Maria’s house is in dire need of repairs. Maria currently provides food and shelter for 25 children PLUS her own family. Acquiring this land is the first step to building a better home and school to help even more children. But MARIA NEEDS YOU HELP! PLEASE SUPPORT HER IN THIS ENDEAVOR BY GENEROUSLY DONATING NOW. We have a Matching Grant so ALL DONATIONS WILL BE MATCHED 100%! The property needs to be purchased by MAY — so please don’t delay!!!!!
With the land secured, Maria looks forward to building a larger SAFE home and school to continue helping the children she currently supports and to be able to SUPPORT EVEN MORE CHILDREN IN NEED! YOU CAN HELP MAKE MARIA’S DREAM A REALITY! This wonderful woman is giving her life to help others. She sacrifices personal comfort for children. Please support Maria in her heartfelt desire to continue helping those less fortunate. Ngiyabonga (Thank you)
