Our children's money at work

One of the eight (so far) black boards we made for our Seminary/Institute teachers who have class in their homes.  Our kids financed all the activities on this page, and many more.
 Our "Boy George".  A street kid named George who we have "adopted".  These are before and after pictures of him in his new shoes and clothes which our kids paid for.  Why is he happier in his rags?
 He has literally been living on the streets, many miles from his home, starving.  We works for us, hauling groceries, helping move goods associated with the Food Initiative, etc.  He's earning money for bus fare home and for school uniforms.  There are hundreds more where he came from but it's like the star fish story - there may be million you can't save but at least there one who will benefit.
These kids let us take a picture of them and their donkey.  We rewarded them with packets of biscuits (cookies) which we give out to the kids we meet.  We are also donating soccer balls (Moema's idea) to schools and clusters of kids who are using balled rags as balls.

  2. Wonderful blog! This post is amazing, as are your children for providing so selflessly for so many wonderful things for the people there. You are doing amazing things, not only for the people there in Kenya, but also and especially your children and grand children. Love you so much!!
