Cuties Readerfeast: Thank You!

Last Saturday, 5th December,  the Cuties Readerfeast team was at Okwampa near Bawjiase in the central region   where we hosted one hundred children to a Readerfeast.

We started off with a screening and registration session for participants aged six to fourteen years from Okwampa and its   surrounding villages.

With one volunteer leading all the children  and taking them through a phonetic  refresher session using fun methods such as phonetic songs and rhymes,  the children were eventually placed in appropriate   groups depending on their ages, class and their ability to read.  The team comprising eight  volunteers took the children through a two hour reading clinic. The children   were later assessed  to enable the team find out the level of impact made on them. Those who were able to do the task assigned to them were rewarded. The clinic was followed by a feasting segment where the children were fed. Every child went home with a souvenir to constantly   remind them of the   Readerfeast experience .

A few weeks ago, I learned   about  investing in the   Kingdom of God and thought  I   would put this into practice. Thank you to the almighty   God for making   this a dream come true.

A special  acknowledgement   to  a man who believes in investing in  children regardless of of their geographical location: Rev. Ankrah. He  was on a mission   to spread the good news of Christ to people in Okwampa  as well as its neighboring villages and gave the Cuties Readerfeast   team the platform  to hold this event.

Thank you to EPP books services and to everyone   who supported   us. Through  donations, rendering of services,  I cannot   mention everyone   but I want you   to know that I truly   appreciate   your support   and   donations.

It was such a joy  seeing the smiles on the faces of these children.
It felt like  we had put some sunshine in their  lives.
Every child in Ghana, deserves to have access to story books. They deserve to be able to speak and read English regardless of their geographical location. Cuties Readerfeast, is a foundation  which is solely dedicated   to   helping a rural child  read and speak English. Though we may not have been   able to provide all of the  needs of these children,  we are glad we achieved  our goal: 'to put sunshine   in the   life of a rural child.' It's our pledge to do so at Cuties Readerfeast.

In all, we had a good Readerfeast.
Thank you to those amazing kids.
Thank you Okwampa village.










Like every dream, this has been quite challenging   as well but
on this journey,  some people have been  God sent. 
Thank you   to my Saturday   team of volunteers and for everyone who was there doing one thing or the other to ensure a successful event. You guys   were amazing!

    1. Thanks Minister Thomas Hutton-Mills. I couldn't have done this without you and Mama Abby. I appreciate all the love and support from you: your investments in the form of prayer laid the foundation.
      Such beautiful souls and I'm blessed to know you. A loud amen to that. God bless you too. Thank you.
