Sam's final week

Yesterday we had our last dance class in Manenberg which was amazing. The girls were so happy to be there and we could really tell how much it meant to them. They had practiced the dance from last week and knew it perfectly which shows how much it means to them. We also left them with some food and a lot of clothes we are leaving behind. Seeing how excited they were and how appreciative they have been the entire time was so worth everything.

This morning at Christel House I handed out 280 blankets to students. Their faces say it all and exactly why it was so worth it for me to do. These kids are amazing and will be in my heart forever. The kids are going to keep their blankets with them at school because if they were to take it home it would most likely be gone within a day, and even though this is so sad I am so happy they have these blankets to keep at school. There are no words for how much I'm Going to miss them. They have inspired me so much and I am without a doubt going to pursue my career in social work that much more because of them.
