As always, the Ladies of the Inner Wheel batted 1000 -- not 499 children, not 501 children -- but 500 on the button were at the site dressed in their new school uniform and ready to receive their 500 kits. Which they did. Graciously.

An incredible amount of hard work and dedication is involved on their part.
They always amaze.
Returning to Kampala, the van stopped at Tuf Foam Ltd, the mattress company where the Ugandan distribution’s 6,000 bed mattresses were made.

I could not believe my eyes. Two huge trucks were ready to be loaded with 1,000 mattresses and bedkits that we will use in two distributions tomorrow. The ladies of the Inner Wheel who were not at today’s distribution, were there at the factory counting bed rolls, counting shirts, skirts, shorts, flip flops sheets, etc. A final final count. By hand.
Perfection demands.
