Hello donors,
I would like to take this chance to greet you and express my sincere gratitude to you. How have you been? It is my hope that you are as good as I am. The term has being long since we were undertaking the final examination in secondary level but to my enjoyment I have made it through.

Although the year had a lot of challenges including the floods and teachers' strike, I did my level best to ensure that the disasters did not affect my academics. Had the adage "Determination knows no barrier" not being ratified? I therefore wish to take this chance in a special way to thank you for your never ending support in paying my school fees throughout the four years.

It is in deed a testimony that since I joined form one in Masinga school till the end of form four, I have never being send home for school fees. This is all through your financial support. Thank you so much for keeping me in school. May you be blessed. Good bye.

Hello donors,
First I would like to take this golden opportunity to pass my warm greetings and sincere gratitude to you. How have been? It is my hope that you are doing well. On my side, the academic term has ran so smoothly that I could not realise it had come to an halt due to presence of so many activities such as the games activities and music festivals. Despite the challenging environment, I worked with much zeal and zest, and so I attained a mean grade of B-. This was majorly contributed by the enormous support you offered through payment of my school fees. I would like to thank you for your great and kind support. May you be blessed. Good bye.
