TESTIMONIES
“The experience gained from our children participation in “Little Friends of River” project has helped to expose them to the fun of learning. Children and teachers always look forward to the many fun activities offered by this program. Overall this program has increased awareness of the children as well as their parents of the importance of taking care of their environment.”
