Dear Friends and YCM Supporters,

 

Welcome to February/March Newsletter. First of all we would like to apologize for such a long delay on February newsletter but just like people say “2 in 1 means double the fun”. February did not only belong to St. Valentine, but it was also Nadine Schartz’s 20th birthday. Nadine is one of our German volunteers for AFS program. Like always, YCM threw her birthday party on her head. She was surprised but enjoyed it a lot. Happy Birthday Nadine!!! And speaking of Germany, we also had a special visit from a very special woman who gave birth to Micha Bender, another German volunteer. That’s right! Micha’s mom, Bettina Bender, came to visit us here. Thank you for visiting us Mrs. Bender, enjoy your holiday and hope to see you soon!!
