January was met with great excitement at Hope House as we welcomed Kerrie with open arms on New Year’s eve! The boys were overjoyed to see Kerrie again after such a long time and we had great fun celebrating the New Year altogether at the beach! With Kerrie’s arrival also brought a flurry of activity and we have been so happy to have had her with us for a great and productive 5 weeks! | |
The start of 2017 saw Hope House filled with more furniture and equipment as Jackson and Kerrie moved in fully to the house, giving up their previously rented property nearby. This means that Jackson will now be positioned full time at Hope house which logistically has made a huge difference to our work and ensures that Jackson is always on hand should the children need help outside of the day centre opening hours.
We now have a group of street boys who attend our day centre on a regular basis and have made themselves comfortable and at home. It is such a joy for us to see them relax and be able to forget about the stresses of life on the street.
Life at Streets of Hope is not always lazy though and the boys love to get involved and help out wherever they can! January has seen the construction of a new rubbish incinerator, some freshly painted walls and windows and the planting of a new flower bed to name just a few things that we have been up to!
