Dear Orphan’s Dream Community,
Receive summer greetings from Oasis kids and staff. We trust you are all well in the Lord.
Three months ago, Oasis decided to hire a qualified teacher (tutor) who could help our kids in tackling academic challenges. Her name is teacher Joyce. We had discovered a need after analyzing the academic trends with our kids. The best solution was to hire our own tutor who could ensure that every child got special attention.
Joyce has been very instrumental to the success of our kids in school. She has been able to handle each kid one at a time, thus developing a personal relationship. This has helped her discover their strengths and weaknesses at individual levels through coaching and guiding them accordingly.
Within a very short period, we have witnessed a great improvement with our children, especially their desire to study. This is evidenced by their change of attitude towards education. The end of term results are out and our kids are just full of smiles.
In the attached pictures, you will see Agnes, one of our kids, being celebrated by our mothers for being the top girl in their class. Agnes is 9 years and in grade 3 and she managed 670 marks out of the possible 700 (over 95% mean grade). The teachers are so happy at school because our kids have raised the mean grade and the position of the school within the zone.

This is very encouraging and we are praising God for it. You are the key contributors to this success. Halleluyah!! Oasis family appreciates our sponsors and donors for their continuous support to this noble course. We bought Agnes a beautiful pair of shoes, as you can see in the picture attached, as a way of appreciating her effort. We appreciated others too at different levels. This seems to have motivated them greatly. In the pictures, you will also see girls cutting their strawberry cake and the boys a vanilla cake as part of the celebrations.

God bless you all and keep up the good work of the Lord. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Paul Maringa
