Donation

Thanks to all who contributed funds!! While in Sang'alo, about $400 was left to Arap Chumba: this was our "Kenyan father". He was a neighbor and management of the school. He has 11 children and works as a sustinence farmer. Three of his girls were in 8th grade when we taught at the school. He had sold some of his land and even some of his cows to pay for them to continue their education, but he does not have enough to pay for two of them. When he found out he was getting help he was so happy. Joseph Kitur, another member of the managment, told me that Chumba has been not even been sleeping lately because he does not know what else to do to get money for school fees. His daughter Clara was one of our favorite students. Last year she was third in a class of 176 students. This family is very deserving of any help!

Another $400 was donated to the school's orphan fund that enables 12 students a year to attend who are missing parents. The funds were running short, so this was a great start.

If you'd like to donate more, there are always needs. Please contact me at thisiserika@gmail.com and I can let you know ways to wire the money there.

Thanks again! Kongoi missing! Asanti sana!
