We thank you for generous donations! As our goals for the year 2015 was highlighted: PAAJAF Foundation aims to work hardly to bring our dreams to reality:
• By working closely with our donors and looking for project sponsors, partners and donations for the PEI and its literacy programmes, buying land for the school, currently the school in a rented venue.
• Resource the school, library, purchase of school bus with donations in kind or sponsorship.
• Sponsor 12 additional children by giving the education to increase our number from 12 to 24 children.
• PEI – Scholarship school project – the preschool students will be increased from 20 to 60 students and help hiring teachers at the school. We also want to provide free lunch to the kids at PEI as these kids have little food at home.
The second quarter of the year 2015 had not been easy for us due to the lack of resources but we are more than happy and thank you our generous donors who have donated to our project: Help Underprivileged Children in Ghana to sustain us. The period under consideration had not been easy but a great progress registered:
• The goal to sponsor 12 additional children by giving the education to increase our number from 12 to 24 children. Though we have not been able to increase the number from 12 but we are help you have help to the current 12 children who are under sponsorship have been able to remain in school.
Thank you very much, it has been amazing to watch the personal development of the children as they return to school, walking talk, brilliants and healthy! The children called PAAJAF Kids are: Ebenezer, Mary, Erica, Josephine, Nidaar, Stephen, Christpher, Vera, Judy, Madicy, Kelvin and Lordina. All the children have raised self-esteem, increased confidence, are continuing their studies and performing well and are in good health. Surprisingly, Madicy name was wrongly stated, he is known as Modecai instead please we apologies for the name confusion. The picture below is: from left is Judy, then Vera and the last list are Philip and Modecai.
• PEI – Scholarship school project – the preschool goal is to increase students and hiring teachers. The studentship to be increased from 20 to 60 students by the close of the year 2015. Hiring teachers for the school and also to provide free lunch to the kids.

• Resource the school, library, purchase of school bus with donations in kind or sponsorship.
Another goal is to resource the school, in view of this, we have established partnership with worldreader to receive e-reader. They have been successfully located a sponsors for the devices what PAAJAF needs is to clear the device from port, installation, launching and maintenance cost to Worldreader so that we could received the device from the organization.

• By working closely with our donors and looking for project sponsors, partners and donations for the PEI and its literacy programmes, buying land for the school, currently the school in a rented venue.
The venue of the PEI Preschool project will expire on October 2016. For the meantime while we are working to get donors and sponsor for our own land and build our own school. We need classroom maintenance, else at the said date above, the landlord of the premises we have rented will kick us out from the premises and if that happens, the project will close of which will affect our students and the community. Please we will be creating a post for the classroom maintenance so that we can at maintain the classrooms for at least another two years. Would you be our sponsor or a donor so that we will not be kicked out?
Thank you for your consideration and your love towards our beneficiaries!
