After many years of faithful service to Vision Africa our Sponsorship Secretary, Betty Waugh, has decided it is time to call it a day and hand over the reigns to someone new. Betty has performed this vital role as a volunteer to Vision Africa since we started the charity in 2001. Thank you Betty!

There was no red and white suit, no sleigh bells and definitely no snow…but Christmas came early to three Vision Africa projects in the last weekend of November.

A Special Day in Kambiti
Posted on December 3rd, 2009 by Kirsty
Saturday 21st November 2009 marked two important events in the history of Vision Africa. The first was the official opening of the Percy Davies School for children with special needs – designed, constructed and supported by Vision Africa. The second event was that this was the last official function for our founders Rev. and Mrs. Packard in their roles as Field Directors. The day proved to be a fitting tribute to both these occasions.
