Ringing Out 2018
December 29
 With three days left in this year, today we were called to the hospital to receive this little one, a one month old pre-mature baby boy who weighs just 1.7 kg ( 3.75 lbs). But the year is not quite done and we could be called again before the end of the year. This is what we do. We rescue abandoned, orphaned, and at-risk babies!
2018 has been a quite a year here at Neema Village. We started the year with 46 babies and children under our roof and have ended with 60. Remember we only take babies under the age of two years. We began the month of November with 64 babies! And of that number, 25 were under the age of 6 months! Can you imagine? This year we received 30 new babies into our care from Social Welfare. We saw 4 adoptions, and we were able to reunite 29 children with their extended families. To help with all the babies, we had 205 volunteers stay in our volunteer house! We love volunteers; maybe 2019 will be your year to come and help!
Our new MAP home, “The Koala House” has been used countless times for classes and seminars for the women. And 23 women have been set up in new businesses through that program!
We have been busy this year! And all of this has been done by the Abundant Grace of God; Praise His Name!
God has used many people to donate their time and money to help Neema Village in 2018. Neema operates only by charitable donations. To the many, many people who have generously given financially this year, we say Thank You! Many have made special gifts just in the last few weeks. Because of your generous and faithful hearts, we have finished the year in the Green and not the Red!
Perhaps you have not made your year-end, tax-deductible, donation. It is not too late! We count on end of the year donations to have a good start in the next year. We pray that you will consider gifting Neema Village with an end of the year donation, if you haven’t already. You can make the gift on-line through our website: www.neemavillage.org or go directly to: https://swp.paymentsgateway.net/co/default.aspx?pg_api_login_id=KKuhXavq14
