Dear Friends and Supporters,
Warm greetings from the Arukah Foundation and the Royal Village Children’s Home.
We are excited and deeply grateful to share that the Royal Village Children’s Home has now been open for three months. These past months have been a time of growth, healing, and joy. We are happy to report that the children are doing very well and are truly happy in their new home.
We want to take a moment to sincerely thank everyone for your prayers, encouragement, and ongoing support. Your faithfulness has helped us create a safe and loving environment where the children can thrive.
A very special thank you goes to our monthly donors, whose consistent and sacrificial giving allows us to meet the children’s daily needs and plan confidently for the future. Your commitment is the backbone of this work, and we could not do this without you.
We are also deeply grateful to our tutors, who generously give their time, patience, and knowledge to support the children’s education. Your dedication has made a visible impact, and we are proud to share that all the children passed their grades—a wonderful achievement made possible through your guidance and encouragement.
A special word of thanks goes to those who generously supported us in purchasing pallets and wood, which played an important role in completing essential structures at the home. Your practical support has made a lasting difference.
We are also incredibly thankful to everyone who brought presents in December and so lovingly spoiled the children. Your kindness brought smiles, laughter, and unforgettable joy during the festive season. It was a beautiful reminder to the children that they are loved and remembered.
As we step into the new year, we do so with great excitement, hope, and expectation for what lies ahead. Thank you for standing with us as we continue building not only houses, but futures.
May God bless you abundantly for being part of this journey.
With heartfelt gratitude,
Arukah Foundation

Geagte Vriende en Ondersteuners,
Hartlike groete van die Arukah-stigting en die Royal Village Kinderhuis.
Ons is opgewonde en diep dankbaar om te deel dat die Royal Village Kinderhuis nou al drie maande oop is. Hierdie afgelope maande was ’n tyd van groei, genesing en vreugde. Ons is bly om te kan sê dat die kinders baie goed vaar en werklik gelukkig is in hul nuwe tuiste.
Ons wil graag ’n oomblik neem om elkeen opreg te bedank vir julle gebede, bemoediging en volgehoue ondersteuning. Julle getrouheid het ons gehelp om ’n veilige en liefdevolle omgewing te skep waar die kinders kan floreer.
’n Baie spesiale dankie aan ons maandelikse skenkers, wie se getroue en opofferende bydraes ons in staat stel om in die kinders se daaglikse behoeftes te voorsien en met vertroue vir die toekoms te beplan. Julle toewyding vorm die ruggraat van hierdie werk, en ons sou dit nie sonder julle kon doen nie.
Ons is ook innig dankbaar teenoor ons tutors, wat vrywillig hul tyd, geduld en kennis gee om die kinders se opvoeding te ondersteun. Julle toewyding het ’n sigbare impak gehad, en ons is trots om te kan deel dat al die kinders hul grade geslaag het—’n wonderlike prestasie wat moontlik gemaak is deur julle leiding en aanmoediging.
’n Spesiale woord van dank gaan aan almal wat ons ondersteun het met die aankoop van palette en hout, wat ’n belangrike rol gespeel het in die voltooiing van noodsaaklike strukture by die kinderhuis. Julle praktiese ondersteuning het ’n blywende verskil gemaak.
Ons is ook ongelooflik dankbaar teenoor almal wat in Desember geskenke gebring het en die kinders so liefdevol bederf het. Julle vriendelikheid het glimlagte, lag en onvergeetlike vreugde gebring gedurende die feestyd. Dit was ’n pragtige herinnering aan die kinders dat hulle geliefd en onthou word.
Terwyl ons die nuwe jaar betree, doen ons dit met groot opgewondenheid, hoop en verwagting vir wat voorlê. Dankie dat julle saam met ons staan terwyl ons nie net huise bou nie, maar ook toekomsverhale.
Mag God julle ryklik seën omdat julle deel is van hierdie reis.
Met opregte dankbaarheid,
Arukah-stigting
