May 2019 Updates

May 23, 2019 Melissa Eli Leave a Comment

Last month the whole of South Africa was given a day off in order to vote in the national election. It was peaceful and reasonably efficient and results so far indicate an overall turnout of 65%. This is little lower than last time but the envy of many democracies.  Perhaps this might seem like an odd way to start this letter, but there has been such discontent in many parts of the country that one strong possibility was that the elections might become a catalyst for further violence, unrest and even loss of life. We thank God this has not been the case. We also thank you for all of your prayers and concern! 
Our team continues to traverse thousands of kilometers to reach potential entrepreneurs across South Africa. This is possible with your support and the God’s blessings. The Phakamani team is honored to have the opportunity in building a stronger South Africa. We are hopeful for the future.
