Albert Jennings from Geelong, Australia who recently celebrated his 80th birthday and decided he did not want to receive gifts, but rather suggested friends and family provide a donation to Gua Africa. He wanted a charity that made a difference for children and saw a donation to the Emma Academy a way to make a real difference to children who do not have an opportunity to go to school. Party goers were taken aback by some of the statistics that affect those living in South Sudan, especially that girls in South Sudan have more chance of dying in childbirth than completing primary school. They raised over $600 for Gua Africa, and helped Albert enjoy this wonderful milestone.

In December Cheltenham Woodcraft Folk held their annual "Charity Bring and Buy" sale, where children bring toys etc., which are sold to raise money for a charity of the children's choosing. We're very grateful that this year the children chose GUA Africa to receive their international donation. A big thank you goes to all involved!
