Namibia: A Valentine's Fundraiser for Education

14 February 2018

Windhoek — You may not be aware, but today is Valentine's Day. The day is celebrated every year on February 14. It is believed to be the day when people show their affection for another person, with people sending cards, flowers or chocolates to one another with messages of love.

The Lifetime Difference Youth Association (LDYA) youth organisation is hosting a Valentine's Day Gala Dinner at Ella Du Plessis Secondary School in Windhoek, this evening. LDYA executive chairperson, Venee Mieze, says the aim is to collect funds for their educational motivation campaign starting end of this month. The campaign will happen in different schools across the country, to give leaners motivation -through speeches- to do well in their examinations, as well as to provide school materials, and school uniforms to vulnerable pupils.
