Today we began our day with a short 1 hour
drive to the distribution site . We were greeted by a huge group of ladies who
demonstrated their traditional dances and singing while hugging and thanking us
profusely. Being a Sunday, this was our biggest welcome yet with everyone in their best clothing (some even borrowed
for the occasion).
After another successful distribution to
500 children we were treated to a wonderful lunch at the family home of one of
the Members of the Inner Wheel of Kampala. Because SCAW is celebrating their 45th
anniversary, the ladies felt that this should be a special feast for us – and
it was!!
Local specialties such as beef , matoke, rice, potatoes, chicken , peanut sauce, plantain, greens, oranges, pineapple were followed by an enormous delicious cake. As we rested in the shade at this beautiful spot we reflected on the happy children and their incredibly grateful parents. Not only will 500 children sleep better tonight, their families have also received the gift of knowing that someone in another country cares about them!
