"Thank you for the donations. They have been used in our sport clubs we do with the Xhosa youth. I cannot thank you enough for the generous gifts! ...  I cannot tell you enough how great your timing was. We were down to our last soccer ball when Dawn (of Ikhaya Labantwana Montessori) called me to tell me about your equipment. We currently have about 40 boys in (the town of) Matokozini, 30 in Matgheni and some in Coffee Bay. When you see the looks on some of the boys faces when they realize they can be part of an organized sport team with real quality equipment, it makes it all worth it!!!"

~ Charlie Gwatkin, co-founder of the sports ministry program for boys in the Wild Coast.
