Judy’s visit to Destiny Garden School – February 2020

Judy Roper, Trustee and Founder of Destiny Children, visited Destiny Garden School during February 2020, and stayed at the home of Jacob Boaz, Director of DGS. The main purpose of Judy’s visit was to hand over some of the administration of the sponsorship programme to Brenda Ongola, who has been a Director of DGS since the school first opened in 2009. Judy also took the opportunity to update the Charity’s records and review the budgets.  Judy says:

“It was great to be able to visit Destiny Garden School, and it was very rewarding to see how the school is coping on the reduced income from the charity. It was wonderful to see all the children  and the dedicated staff again.

Jacob, the School Director, works hard to ensure the school’s success and is very well respected by the people in the local community. Boaz, the School Manager, is producing some excellent work, and it was a pleasure to work with Brenda.  I am confident that she is going to prove to be a great asset in ensuring the sponsorship programme runs successfully.”

NB – 100% of all sponsors’ and donors’ funds received by Destiny Children, including Gift Aid, go directly to Destiny Garden School.  Judy’s visit to Mombasa was funded entirely by Judy herself.
