Today is Friendship Day. <\/strong>Since February this year, three of our sponsored children - one should now speak of young adults - have been living together in a small flat in Windhoek.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Visit to the flat<\/h5>

When steps for children founder Michael Hoppe was on a project trip in Namibia in June, he visited the three girls in their new home together with our National Coordinator Ulrike Mai. They share their flat with Vendjii, a friend (dressed in red here), who has also come to Windhoek to continue her education.<\/p>

Johanna, Clenda and Ndapeua help and support one another when they get stuck with their tasks at home. Because together they are much stronger than on their own. Especially now at the start of Clenda<\/a> <\/strong>and Johanna and in the new courses of Ndapeua<\/a><\/strong>, which are intended to help improve the Abitur, there are many new faces, many new challenges to overcome in a new environment. That makes it especially lovely that they can live together as friends and be there for one another.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Sonja Schneider-Waterberg always works to ensure that her prot\u00e9g\u00e9s do not come to a new environment on their own and can support one another. So they are at least in pairs when Guardian angel children<\/a> go to a secondary school in another place far away from their home, as is the case with Uapandera and Perpetua, who attend secondary school in Otjiwarongo.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

We especially value this strong social cohesion, which is fostered in our steps projects, particularly by our project leaders, educators and staff.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
