Why do I like this project

I like this project because it gives me energy.  In Africa there is a lot of energy.  It is not always employed that well, but there is energy, there is strength, there is will power and hope, there is enthusiasm and love. And we miss all this nowadays in Europe.  In Africa you find people like Nelson Mandela, a superior being, whom with just his own determination and sacrifice, has been able to change the face of a country. You can find people like Sarah from Nigeria, who managed to survive the crossing of the desert of Niger (by foot!), Algeria, and part of Libya, to end up reaching Spain.  You find  people like Mummy ¨Florence, an incredible woman of a Ugandan village, leading a group of women who had been abandoned with their kids, with no money, no food, and capable of creating a solidarity fund to help them go forward.  And there are people like our kids, who give us such joy, love and hope every day, kids who had nothing and no future in view of the conditions they were in and can now live in their country thanks to this project.   All this, gives us the strength to keep on.
