Thank You Jake
When I first arrived in Nkandla this year, I learned that Sizanani Outreach Programme (SOP) needed some technical assistance... a database to help them manage a sponsorship project that volunteers from Germany initiated. It was clear that the sponsorship project would take off and that a simple, effective database would be instrumental in managing the resources and ensuring that the children were properly served. While I am pretty computer savvy, Access is not my specialty. So, I sent an email to our friend Jake Jacobs who agreed to help. Within a week, Jake developed a database and he continues to offer technical assistance to the SOP. Thank you, Jake.
