Dear Mr Peter,
It's a great pleasure for me to get your message which goes deeply in my heart.
We, Africa Rural Foundation (ARF) are very interested in sharing FDA visions
with you.
Our vision and goals are using African skills,efforts and
help...Africa together on her own in the fight against poverty and hunger
within a vibrant.
We, ARF, think that earths great treasure lies in human personality;and that
service to humanity is the best work of life...Mother Teresa's example is the
best one around the world.
Therefore, we all of Africa, hand-in-the-hand, need to stand as one seek
solutions within africa for Africa through partnerships; to poor and excluded
African rural in the local to combating poverty and hunger.
There's a special reason to make partnership with you according to FDA sight's
vision: "Lets create wealth rather than lets alliviate poverty".
Rural Africa is the only area where the two species of extreme poverty and hunger are grown daily.It's a
boom for the African rural to be located in the region where your help is needed
and welcomed to the people.
We have prioritised four areas of work: education, hiv/aids, emergencies, women and
children.
Therefore, we just need to coordinate our efforts and humanitarian
actions to root poverty and hunger in our continent...don't dream it, live it
with us (ARF) in order to gain Millennium Development Goals in Africa.
With the hope that our application forms would be given a timely reply, we are
looking forward to hearing yours.

Dear Peter
Again thank you for your ever committed efforts in the support for Africa
development. I am excited in reading (your emails) as it strengthens what I have
been leaving as a motto in all my meetings, "Africa can sustain Africa and
so jointly we have an open endless opportunity to the world"
I have tried all the WTO and EU funders etc for project development and have
come to the basis after a three year struggle in getting nowhere that we
need to look at how we started in Africa - from nothing and look where we
all are today. We have hence started many self sustaining projects that
create employment and self sustaining development to communities throughout
Africa. Our next project will be done in South Africa and then the DRC of
which we will shed some light once operational.
Once again thank you and keep at the good hard work, though seemingly
rewardless at times, especially when parting a negative meeting, we realise
that an elephant can be eaten one bite at a time!
Cheers for now

Dear Mr. Metcalfe,
Thank you for your constant information on
issues pertaining to the developments in FDA.
I wish to inform you that I
have been able to complete my project at Ghana National College in Cape
Coast Ghana. Now I intend to invest in a compressed/ stabilised clay brick
project in Ghana.
I shall be grateful if, through FDA, you would be able to
provide any technical information on such a project.
Many thanks for your co-operation.
I remain,
Faithfully yours

Dear Sir,
I have often appreciated your efforts to development of Africa. However, I wish you could take a side-look at some of the challenges confronting the "togetherness" of we Africans in general.
For Africa to unite in working towards a common agenda, personally,I would like to suggest that a platform be made to bring African youth together to identify our problems and try finding amicable solutions to these.
Maybe for now it will be difficult, I suggest that annual conventions should be organised in future to consider this proposal. I wish you good luck in your struggle, and hoping that one day we all live to glorify FDA in unison!
Yours in the struggle,

Hello Peter,
Great work with the website!
I am currently doing my MSc dissertation on NEPAD's Consolidated Plan of Action for Science & Technology, where i am reviewing relevant governance and financial mechanisms which could support NEPAD's CPA. As you are probably aware it can be painfully difficult finding out exactly what's going on, your website has been a welcome change from what I have been looking at.
I wish you all the best with your foundation,

Peter,
Thanks for your self-less contribution to inform Africans and our allies about the need to promote private business entrepreneurship as well as consolidate existing and create new economic empowerment agendas through the Foundation for Development of Africa (FDA).
Economic liberation of Africa is going to be championed and led by Africans (of all ethnicities and hues) in addition to our allies in the same way we had to champion political freedom for national sovereignty and elimination of raciasl/political apartheid.
I am organizing here with African Continentals frpm central, east and west Africa and educating them about FDA etc

Hello Peter.
Thank you very much for these interesting emails.
Please let me know when you visit Uganda next time so that we can sit and
discuss few development programmes which I think will benefit Africa at
large.
We need to take them up as
Africa development programmes.
Keep that good work you are doing.
