| From Kenya 2009 Photo Album |
The Nakuru distribution at the AIC church site provides a model for all distributions. At each site we are concerned with the children sitting in the hot equator sun while waiting for the photos. We encourage children to stay in the classrooms or in the shade although that is not always possible. At AIC, tents had been provided by a private organization such that the children were seated in the shade while listening to the traditional African music in the background.
The bed kits were stored in an orderly fashion in the church pews, which facilitated an orderly flow of photos and receipt of bed kits. Following the distribution, the music was turned up and we joined the children in a conga line dance throughout the property. This was an upbeat organized by the local volunteers.
Following the distribution we visited one of the homes that had received a bed kit last year. To get there we had to drive down streets that seemed paved with garbage before we found our destination, two rooms housing 8 people at the end of an alley of similar structures. The bed kit was one of the few possessions for the family and no doubt, the mosquito net was used by more than one child.
