On Friday 30th November,
Linda was asked to come to the Tomorrow Trust offices as
he thought that he would be attending a conference. At
8.20am the phone rang and it was The Rude Awakening on
94.7 and they wanted to speak to Linda.
Linda took the call
in a haze of excitement and a little confusion. Jeremy
retold Linda’s heartbreaking story
and then introduced Linda to Lenerd Louw the CEO of 1life
direct. He had heard Linda’s story and was truly
moved by it and decided that the company would like to
get involved and help further Linda’s studies.
They
very generously sponsored Linda’s college fees
so that he can continue to study his Diploma in Travel
and Tourism. Coupled with this they will also pay for Linda
to stay in accommodation close to the college. This will
support Linda’s education fully as he will be able
to live and study in a safe and secure environment.
On
Monday 3rd December Linda was invited to the 1life
direct offices where he met Lenerd Louw and all the other
staff. It was a great opportunity for Linda to talk to
his sponsors and be exposed to a corporate environment.
We
would like to thank 1life direct for contributing to
the Tomorrow Trust, such support is invaluable to the work
we do.
