Last year we made the decision to complete the renovation of the
third floor of the Point of Hope Development Center. This capital campaign was
called "Breaking through Barriers" and had the purpose of renovating
the remaining class-rooms into life-skill development rooms. This was a large
under-taking due to the remaining rooms were completely stripped of anything
with any value. All of the wiring and wood had been stripped from the walls
when the building sat abandoned for several years. Well the renovation is UNDERWAY!
The donors who have made the Breaking
through Barriers campaign a reality need to be recognized for their generous
hearts! Thanks to each of you for your support of this project.

In May we will be concentrating our efforts on the new restroom for the children. This 3rd floor restroom will be a welcome addition. Currently, the children would have to run to the second floor to go to the bathroom or to simply wash their hands. This restroom will benefit the children tremendously! You can see pictures of what the 3rd floor looked like before we started the renovation and how it is progressing.
The end results will be magnificent! The
125 children we serve on a daily basis will have access to a preschool play
area for those times when playing outside are not conducive, a wood-working
classroom, and sewing/fabrics classroom, and a cooking classroom. These 4 new
rooms along with a new restroom will give our children a chance to develop some
valuable life-skills needed to survive in their environments.
ACF is so very thankful to ALL of our
supporters for their commitment to these children. The Breaking through
Barriers campaign had 2 goals. First, was to raise the $43,000 needed to complete
the renovations. The second goal is to raise an additional $17,000 for the
ongoing costs of the program for 2 years. We have successfully raised the first
$43,000 and are now working on the $17,000. If you feel called to support the
completion on this project you can click on the link below to MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
