Today
we spent the day stocking up on supplies and visiting multiple schools and
community wells, some of which were supported by other Canadian charities. The
importance of clean water and difficulty in accessing some, cannot be
overemphasized – even here in the capital of Lome itself. Yet another example
of the things we in the west are fortunate enough to be able to take for
granted.
We
also visited the area where the bedkits are stored before they are transported
to the distribution sites. 5,000 bedkits ready to go.
The
team is looking forward to tomorrow’s distribution- our first.
