From Togo 2012 |
Banging drummers and shimmying dancers greeted and surrounded us, and the crowds gave big cheers when we displayed the bedkit contents, especially for the school backpack.
Music kept playing as we distributed the bedkits to the children in the hot African sun. We interviewed some families who expressed their unbounded gratitude as these incredibly practical and precious offerings are simply unaffordable for them. They insisted that the items will help in improving their health and scholastic development.
They were very thankful for every single item in the bedkit. And the children especially like the backpack.
We enjoyed our trip home as we visited the local artisan shops and a small waterfall. The waterfall was located in what seemed like a “mini” rain forest.
