Swaziland Photo Recap
For those of you who don’t know, we made it back from Africa a little over a week ago. We’re still working on some great video updates for you, but I thought I’d take a few minutes just to do a quick photo recap (for any of you who aren’t on facebook or twitter). Here are just a few of our favorite shots from the past few weeks!
One of our first days in Swaziland! We loved watching the sun set over the traditional Swazi huts made of mud, sticks and grass.
Check out the new Children’s Library we started in the preschool at the Nsoko Carepoint!
This little girl was SO excited about the new books! THANK YOU to everyone who donated to this project!
Working in the Community Garden with Phindile. To find out more about this project CLICK HERE.
Nutritious spinach! Just one of the many healthy vegetables the kids will soon be eating!
School’s out! The children are quick to run to the carepoint at the end of each day. Year end donations to The Sound of Hope provided the funds for 112 children in Nosko to go to school this year!
Here are a few of the older girls, hanging out together at the carepoint after school.
Thanks to a generous donation, all the preschool kids got new Auburn clothes! You can see the video HERE.
There were new shirts for the Swazi staff we are partnered with too! Our work would not be possible without the help of the Gogos that cook for the children, the D-team, the facilities supervisors, the Clinic Assistant, and the Preschool Teacher!
We’re also grateful for the American family we’re partnered with that lives in Nsoko full-time. THANK YOU Jen, Eric, Claire, and Jacob for the hard work you do around the clock!
We loved seeing some traditional Swazi dances at the Cultural Center in Ezulwini!
Only in Africa can you see a Journey of Giraffe on the way to lunch! The wildlife in Swaziland is truly unique!
I have known Senkhosi since he was only 1 year old. It’s been amazing to visit him on each trip to Swaziland and watch him grow up over the past 5 years!
This is Sotja, a 3 year old double orphan who spends most of his days at our carepoint. When we see smiles like this one, it makes all our work worthwhile!
Stay tuned for more updates about our time in Africa, and find out how you can be a part of giving HOPE to the children of Swaziland!
