Despite the hard times
Dear friends a KiT sponsors,
regardless of the current situation with the spread of the COVID-19 disease we are here with short news from KiT.
Together we are working on the report for the year 2019. Once it will be ready and available we will let you know. You will be able to download it from Reports under the Documents section of our web pages.
In the same section under Mails you can find fresh new letter from Emma. He decided to enhance his CV by finishing the master degree at MWENGE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY (MWECAU). He's registered there in two year program for MASTER OF EDUCATION IN ASSESSMENT AND EVALUATION (MEEAE). Fingers crossed for him and we hope that together with our support he will be able to get all the money to pay the school fees. You can find more about his life and his family in the letter.
And last but not least there is also ongoing discussion regarding the new candidates for the KiT support. You can find collected essays under section Candidates.
We will keep you informed regarding the progress and until that take care and stay safe!

New year's quickies
Dear friends,
we are wishing you happy New Year!
Just a short news at the beginning: last week in Tanzania there were finally made public the results of the national exams. Based on these students can figure out their chances to be accepted by this or that high school = A-level.
During the last week did also Emma visit one O-level high school to get the recommendations from the teachers for the new suitable KiT candidates. This year we'd like to start supporting a fresh new student and of course keep on supporting Jackelin. (Other students have already left the school - Rose, Godfrey, ...). Don't worry we will keep you inform regarding the choice.
As we've already informed you in previous e-mails this year we'd also would like to support Emma who decided to extend his education so that he would have more and better job and life opportunities.
On our bank account we have currently a respectable amount of 98.000 czk. That should safely cover the costs for this year. We'd like to discuss the possibility of start supporting another student in next year.

KiT members meeting & news
Dear KiT sponsors,
after some time we are here again with some news from our project.
On August 9th 2019 there was the KiT members meeting in Statenice. Discussed were these topics:
- Current status of our supported kids, Jackeline, Godfrey and Rose.
Jackeline keeps on studying architecture. She's just finished the eighth week of her fieldworks. We will bring more news by the end of the year.
Godfrey has successfully finished his studies in Tanzania and he is just in the process of thinking about the following studies abroad. But there is also a possibility that he will get some job in Dar Es Salam or in any other tanzanian city and then he may stay there.
Rose has successfully passed the exams and has became a nurse. - Request from Ema (our KiT coordinator in Tanzania) for our another support.
He'd like to keep on studying and namely he'd like to get the Master's degree in his teaching subject. So far he is being assigned by the governments administration anywhere there is need. And in the majority of these opportunities was teaching at the first level of the basic/primary school. Additional studies should help him a lot for his future carier. We agreed on that we would like provide him with the requested support - if he will pass the entry exams. - Our students supported by KiT are successfully finishing their studies and leaving KiT. Therefore we would like start serching for a new talented/gifted student or two who were not so lucky with the family background. And we'd like start supporting her or him in coming year 2020. Ema is aware of this plan and he will help us with the search as always. The conditions for the candidates will be the same as in the previous years - esey in English, outstanding school results etc.
- We are still looking for the volunteer who could helps us with accountancy. Each year we are spending about 7.000 CZK for this activity and it is quite easy job. If anybody would like to help or knows anybody else who could help we would be very thankful. Templates from the previous years are available.
- Budget for the coming year - the awaited amount of expenditures should be around 75.000 CZK what should include -
- 2 x 20.000 czk for two new students
- 1 x 20.000 czk for Jackelin
- 7.000 czk accountancy (for the year 2018)
- 1.000 – 2.500 czk for Ema (based on the delivered results from this year autumn)
- plus other additional small expenditures.
Current balance on our KiT aacount (11.9.2019) is 80.400 czk.
Have a great day,
Mandy, Dan, Veny and Šimon
