Kenya: 600 bedkits in Thika

From Kenya 2009 Photo Album
Day 4

Buffeted by the swirling red soil that is so characteristic of Africa another 600 children received bedkits in Thika, the largest slum outside of Nairobi.

Field marshalling the entire event was the very enthusiastic and energetic, Eleanor. Her commitment to the most vulnerable children of this country was inspirational to all of us.

This was very evident when we visited the “Action for Children in Conflict” shelter that she operated, a residential group home for children, ten children to each bedroom. Chris distributed t-shirts and soccer balls that had been donated by the Rotary Club of Barrie, Ontario.
