Manager Yibe has contacted me with the latest update on food program projected costs.
Here is the short version of our monthly projected costs to feed the 15 boys who are now enrolled in school, plus their monthly school fees.
4 of the older boys were able to register in grade 2 and 11 younger boys registered in grade 1. Their first day was yesterday! Combined their monthly fees are only $13, plus small costs for additional pens, etc. as need arises (this will come out of the small money we send extra every month)
Now for the food program. We have discussed with the coach and boys about a program to feed the students so they are not tempted to leave school (to work, or because of hunger) which has happened in the past with some of the boys who had gotten education opportunities)
This will cost approximately $40 to start the program (for stove, dishes, etc.) and about $65 to run month to month.
The neat thing about this program is that the club boys will prepare the food and do all the work, and get paid for their work. This will feed the 15 students. This is only a projected cost, and a pilot program.
Please praise God with us that we are able to have a roll in these boy's lives and pray that the love of Jesus will be revealed more and more in the boys' hearts. Also that we will be able to implement this new plan to ensure further sustainable future for Club Anbesa!
(If the plan goes well, we may be able to turn it into a business or income generating project!)
Also pray that the boys are successful in school to give them more sustainable opportunities for their future and for their community acceptance!
