The two
girls, from Mexico city, have been friends since
they were children and volunteering in Africa is a dream come true for them.
they were children and volunteering in Africa is a dream come true for them.
They also put in a huge effort before they came, raising a total of 1000 pounds for the Happy House,
and also spent a great deal of time and effort planning activities to do
with the children.
These
include a project on Children Around the World – they have made
Hawaiian leis, Red Indian headdresses, Mexican pinatas ,taken a imaginary trip to the
pyramids and enjoyed flying the flag for Great Britain.
The children
are having so much fun getting a glimpse of the way children live in other
countries and Ally and Fab are bringing them so much.
They are
always busy, assisting in school, helping out with the babies or turning their hands
to anything that is needed.
When school's out they're down at the play area, playing and singing with the kids.
Sadly, Aleka will be leaving on April 9 (and how hard it will be for her to drag herself away) while Fabiola is with our family until the end of April.
They will be missed, but, we know, the Happy House will remain in their hearts forever.

Volunteers, of all ages and from many different countries and backgrounds, have so much to give to our family and we know that their experience with us
will change their lives for the better too.
