In Dekpor, when it rains, it truly does pour! Throughout the years, we've been challenged by roofing sheets. In 2024, finally, a source for made-to-order long sheets was found. We were able to replace some of the school campus buildings then. But, here we are in 2025 and three of the school buildings and our Dekpor Central Shops were in a bad way. Seriously, this is an expensive undertaking, especially when the wood joists, rafters, and ridge boards have rotted and also need replacing along with the sheets.
What to do? Panic, pause, and then send a message to a friend or two! Yep, just HOW fortunate we are to have long-standing, exceedingly generous donors who believe in what we do! It is with the beautiful giving of Anonymous Friends #1 who also ensured Anonymous Friends #2 financed the bulk of it, along with a $25,000 gift from the Busch Family Foundation that we were able to make sure the students, staff, school goods and all the shops and their wares are protected from the elements! WOW!
Words can't express just how relieved we are to have this looked after so quickly! Thanks to our friends, JS, RF, and Craig Busch...YOU are simply the best!
