Dear Sir or Madam,
dear members of Go Ahead!,
thank you for what you achieved during your volunteer year at God's Golden Acre. 
I was very happy to accept the patronage of the Young Zulu Warrior's 2006 show in my constituency Schwarzwald-Baar. What I saw and experienced there impressed me deeply. Not only the musical itself with its great rhythm and fascinating dances, but also the passion and optimism of those young were amazing, despite their hard upbringing. I was also impressed by the dedication of the German volunteers who were so successful organising the tour. Jan Bildhauer's speech in March in Königsfeld once more helped me to visualize the adventures and experiences he had during his volunteer year in South Africa. Hence, I fully support the foundation of GoAhead!, an organisation which shall put your great work on a solid basis. As stated in your constitution, educational projects are the main focus in order to give children in need new chances and perspectives.
As you probably know, Africa's urgent problems are a focus of the German G8 presidency. Economic development is a concern, as are the fight against poverty and the HIV / AIDS pandemic. We want this summit to send a positive message to Africa. Privata initiatives in development and NGO's make an essential, indeed invaluable, contribution to solving Africa's problems. The start of GoAhead! is a beacon of hope across countries and continents. I wish you motivated comrades, good luck and great success.
Best regards
Siegfried Kauder, Member of Parliament
