Grim day

Our major donor has a funding crisis - they signed a contract with us on the basis of promises of money from governments who have reneged on their promises - and today we've had to close one of our projects and lay off 3 staff despite our best efforts to avert the crisis. The same happened to Save the Children USA earlier this year when the Danish Government turned around mid-way through their project and asked for the money back. They closed altogether...at least we're still here I guess...
