We have continued to speak with Mrs. Ouma regularly to keep ourselves updated with news from the Kisumu villagers, and the children from the Alego Primary School. We were both shocked and disappointed to hear that the breakfast program at the nursery school became temporarily suspended due to lack of funds. Additionally, the roof of the school (as previously mentioned in an older post) has continued to leak, and is in need of desperate repair. As you can see on the Alego Community Development Project's (ACDP) website, and from our recent blog updates, DONATIONS ARE NEEDED! Every penny counts and will be used, one hundred percent, towards the development of the ACDP.
As the time comes closer to our departure, I am so excited to embark on this once in a lifetime adventure with my childhood friend, Justine. Justine and I met over a decade ago, at a local YMCA. We quickly became close friends in the years that followed. In high school, we discovered a common interest in teaching. We later chose to each pursue a degree in education. I never thought that I would have an opportunity like this to teach with my best friend, in AFRICA!
We are so thankful for all the support we have received. If you would like to make a donation to the development of the Alego Primary School, Please click on one of the several PayPal links on our blog :)
Until next time, Kwaheri!
