Today Kathy Hallett and I presented to a group of Anglican Church Women in Sturgeon Falls. It was a great experience although I find I am quite emotional when I first return from Kenya.
Everything is still fresh in my mind and all the food distributions that we did seem like just a stop gap although they will provide food for a month or so for each family. We gave out food to over 500 women and that would feed over 3000 children. We also handed out food to 4 schools that would provide children with a lunch. For many that is their only meal of the day.
I have just finished doing a write up with pictures that will hopefully be up on the web site in a week. It is always difficult choosing pictures from over 2500 that we took. I am grateful to everyone who donated to Hope2Kenya so that we could once again provide food for many, finish a school, help to complete work on another school, provide school supplies for schools and teachers, and provide uniforms so that some children can now go to school. Without the ongoing support that we receive we couldn't do what we do. A very heartfelt thank you.
To the women in Sturgeon Falls today, thank you for all your support and for being so receptive to our message.
