Betty visits us in Nice View

On January 14th, 2010, Betty (for background details please go to Children -> Alumni  -> Betty)  visited us together with her parents and her 2 month old brother in Nice View.

After a visit that was planned already a long time ago had to be cancelled, since Betty’s mother got ill, a former co-worker who is still wedded to Nice View begun to search for Betty. Following an investigation lasting for days and a search on the motorbike for hours (the remainder of the way he had to walk), Betty was finally standing in front of him. All approaches before failed, since every time the connection broke when Betty’s father called, and since also we were not successful in getting in touch by phone.

All co-workers and children were happy when Betty stood in front of the gate to visit us in Nice View two days later.

Betty  is now in class one, however, speaks almost no English anymore. We have the impression that her parents take care of her well. Her father owns a little shop, her mother is a tailoress and cultivates the piece of land they own. Besides this they have a small house as well as some cows and goats.
