There are no words…
Your generosity has created a sustainable future for our foster families.
Hi there , It’s Jono and Carita from LIV Durban here.
We’re almost two weeks on from our Living Off The Grid campaign, and as the dust settles from a busy month, we are still absolutely astounded at your generosity towards the village.
It’s hard to put into words the extent to which, over the last 5 years, utility problems have disrupted life on the village. We can recall several points in recent memory where the village has not had power and water for six weeks – imagine trying to raise six children in a house with no power and water! It really has been difficult for our mothers here on the village…
But thanks to an awesome God and the most wonderful group of supporters – all of that is behind us now. We raised R4.9 million which is enough to install the entire solar system – that means the lights in our houses, the computers at school, and the fence around the village will all be staying on from October 2024 and beyond!
Yes, we are still R2 million away from our target and that means our water project won’t be going ahead for now. But we have found that the Father has given us a deep peace about this – and we have total trust in Him that, much like the solar panels, our water filtration system will be installed at the right time.
Of course, if you do know anyone who would be interested in giving towards this project – please do get in touch with Nichole and she will be able to give you all the details you need.
With all this said, all that’s left for me to say is a huge thank you. The families here have been unbelievably blessed by the gift that you have given!
All our thanks,
Jono & Carita
