After being
without internet for 30+ hours, we are most anxious to be able to update you on
our activities!
The 25th
was mostly a travel day with only a few stops in between departure and
destination. The first being a very inspirational and touching school founded
by a man, who had himself been poor and unable to receive an education until
later in life. The school is solely dedicated to taking in, feeding, educating
and loving orphans and street kids. We were very grateful to have been invited
into his house, got a tour of the school grounds as well as a VERY big warm
welcome from the students and teachers. We all decided to contribute towards
the purchase of 200 chicks to enable them to begin their chicken coop. This
chicken coop will teach the children agriculture and business; concepts we find
very important. It was a stop none of us will ever forget. We arrived in our hotel around 7:30, enjoyed
dinner and turned in early.
The
26th was a distribution day! To be very warmly welcome by children
anxious to shake our hands with their beautiful smiling faces, was an amazing
start to our day. The children were absolutely blown away by our bubbles, it
created such spontaneous excitement and broad smiles. The distribution went by
flawlessly considering it was the school’s first time hosting SCAW. The
children were very patient, kind and mature. Ready for an early start tomorrow
to another distribution site with 500 bedkits to give out. Excited to see all
their smiling faces!
