Day 7 Wagholi
It’s a Done Deal!
As we travelled towards Wagholi I reflected
on the past distribution days, and realized how lucky I was to have been part
of a team who worked together to achieve our goal…to distribute 4,000 bedkits
to 4,000 needy children in India. We
laughed and we cried, but we stood firm in the fact that we were helping these
children. That kept us going, throughout
our jet lag and sickness.

The community of Wagholi welcomed us with
smiles and open arms. We have been
honoured to be a part of their celebration and thoroughly enjoyed the pomp
& circumstance. Reality will be
coming soon when we come home…no more treating us like rock stars, but that is
just fine. We will have our memories of
6 team members banding together and becoming friends.
