I am very grateful to the Dad FUND for supporting me for the secretarial course which I thoroughly enjoyed.
I am now employed by Dr Clement George as a secretary and love my job.

Without the Dad FUND I wouldn't have made it thus far.

Thanks Dad.

To the Dadfund Team

I would like to thank you for giving me a second chance to further my studies. Dad Fund has given me the opportunity to travel the world and meet different people. I am blessed to be enrolled in one of the best institutions in United States of America (USA), that ensures that students are exposed to the best of human thoughts and ideals.

Life in the States has shaped and given me a different perspective about life. I have grown to be an independent human being who strives to achieve maximum results in all the goals I have set for myself. All of the above was made possible by the Dad Fund because they believed in me when no one else saw the potential.

Thank you very much and please continue to give hope and opportunity to individuals who strive for the best things in life.

Kind regards
Lesego Ranamane

I completed my BA Theology degree at Helderberg College at the end of 2009. I'm grateful and very blessed to have been assisted by the Dad Fund and the people involved in it. My dad is in fact Daniel Arther Douman and I feel honored to have been part of something that was started in his name.
