Harry raises $450 dollars with Mrs Foster and Whitefield Primary School!

Dear Children of Becky School

 

My name is Harry and I am 8 years old. My Grandma, Anni Poole, came to visit you in Africa and I wanted to help to raise money for your school. I made a video appeal  (annipoole.blogspot.com).

 

So next I started an appeal in my school and my headteacher Mrs Foster helped me. It was cool.

We went around all the classes telling them all about how your school needed lots of equipment. All the kids listened really listened.

 

Then my Grandma came into school and led an assembly to show pictures of Becky School and your beautiful country, so that our school could understand a little piece more.

So we held a special Africa day of fun and came in our own clothes! It was really cool and now everyone knows my Grandma as Anni and I am proud to be helping her and especially to be helping you. I raised £266 English pounds or $450 dollars with the help of my friends. My Grandma and Mum are really proud of me.

 

I would really like to help you to buy a computer one day.I hope you have some great chances in your school cos I do in mine. Mar says Mr and Mrs Wiseh are lovely people.

 

Lots of love

Harry

Harry's Legacy for Liberian Children

 

This is my Grandson Harry he has been my BEST supporter for this lifetime trip to Africa. I went to his school to watch an assembly about Inspirational People in your life. I wanted to inspire Harry.

Today I went to Whitefield Primary School to talk about Hopes and Dreams and how their assembly had inspired me to go to Liberia. This was my dream since I was a little girl. When you have a dream you need to enlist the support of friends and family to help you to achieve it. Thank you Harry , Mrs Foster the Headteacher, Staff, Children and parents of Whitefield School for helping Becky School with your toys and £1 coins raised on your non-uniform day. Whitefield School are raising money for desks chairs books and a teacher for Becky School. Thank you.
Love Anni x

A heart of a lion

 

Loving Liberia

Since I returned home I have been unable to post here. I needed to journal and to feel my feet return to the Earth Space I hold sacred to me...England.

I love my African people.

I love my team mates , those I ventured into the jungle and whose hearts opened so wide to Liberia.

I am still taking in the expanse of the legacy Robert Evans Spryte Loriano and Kimmie Weeks enabled me to give.I met such beautiful children and welcoming youths and adults. I heard their dreams and they wove into mine...

Liberia calls me back.

Back to children.

To Jimmy in his orphanage.

And it calls to me.
