A Visit That Carries a Legacy ❤️
We were honoured to welcome Merryl and Jan from Melbourne to A Future 4 Kids.
Merryl holds a very special place in the story of AF4K. She and her late husband, Graeme Blair, were involved in the early beginnings of the project and played an important role in supporting the school and the children.
After Graeme passed away, the four classroom Blair Wing was completed and dedicated in his honour. It stands as a lasting reminder of the love, generosity and belief he and Merryl had in the AF4K vision.
What makes Merryl’s continued support even more meaningful is that, despite losing her husband, she never gave up on the school. She continued advocating for AF4K, encouraging donations and helping keep the vision they believed in alive.
During their stay, Merryl and Jan also met with our recent graduates, Abigail and Jennifer who graduated from Northrise University. They also spent time with the secondary school children, hearing about their experiences, hopes and dreams for the future. It was a special opportunity for her to see the continued impact of the AF4K vision and the difference it is making in the lives of our children. ❤️
Merryls return to the school is a beautiful reminder that some people become more than supporters. They become part of the AF4K family and its history.
Thank you, Merryl and Jan for visiting, for believing in our children and for continuing to stand with AF4K. ❤️
